Maybe you could have a look at the tutorials (under campus), there is a tutorial about uploading pages. (make sure the size is right).
Good Luck. Hope to see your page in the gallery soon.

If they're paper scrapped, and you want to scan them in that's WONDERFUL! :) Most scanner beds are not going to accomdate a 12x12 page, but you can either just let a bit be cut off the edges or scan one half, move it over, scan the other half and either hand 'stitch' them together (put both on a layout, make one lower in opacity so you can match them up then bring the opacity back up and merge the two) or use a stitch software. Some scanners come with them and cameras often will too, these days. The best stitching software I've tried so far (and always looking for the perfect one. ;) ) is Canon's photostitch that came with my camera. I use it all the time to stitch photos or scans together.

You may need to resize your scan for the gallery - it limits the size to 125k which is way small for printing and archiving, but great for viewing on the web. Check the tutorial section for how to do this in PSP. And you'll need to have it as a jpg, I believe.

Keep at it - and keep asking - we'll get you going! :)
