"Too many pixels", not "file size is too large".  A 4000x3000 image 
will have 12,000,000 pixels whether it's JPEG or GIF or PNG or TIFF.  If 
that's really the problem, the only thing you can do is crop or resize 
the image.  Since you don't want to crop the image, you have to resize 
it.  That's Image->Scale Image in Gimp, YImageEditorMV.
