Firstly, in the future, keep in mind we have a forum section for questions like this. User2User Tech.
Is it giving you an error telling you the picture is too big? Is it a gif, jpeg or bmp? Are you uploading it from your laptop, phone, tablet? Or are you linking it from another site?
If it's not giving you a message and you simply read the requirements without trying, is suggest trying it anyways. Usuly it will resize the picture.
If uploading and it is giving the error message then I believe there are websites that allow you to make those sorts of changes for free. I don't know of any, since I use Photoshop. Perhaps another user will be able to provide a name. Or you can Google search for them.

I seem to remember paint has an option for making a picture a set nr of pixels?

https://pixlr.com/editor/ will allow you to make many edits to an image

Resave the image to your computer and proceed from there.

Yes, in Paint you can resize by proportion or by pixel dimension

But does anyone read the User2User Tech Forum?

But I think it will still be available at a no cost download, won't it?
