Um, ok. Congradulations. However, I would advise you to put up some progress pics or any pics of your work. Otherwise it is likely that this thread will be closed.
I'm going to lock this up for now, without pictures or a real plan of attack (for building the armor) there's not a lot of need for a "I'm going to build this" type thread.
As for the photo problems, try using a photo resizing program like Irfanview if you're on Windows or EasyBatchPhoto if you're on a Mac (You can also resize photos in Preview on OS X if you don't want to buy addition software)
Once you've got the photos resized you can host them on Photobucket and post links to them here.
Also, watch the double posting. Use the "Edit" button instead of posting again.
