Question about uploading photo.

[Lorace]

I tried to up load a photo of a puzzle I made.   I put my password and user name in,  but would not work.   Is it a diffrent log in to be able to add photos?
I tried to re-reg but it said some one eles has the email address.
( and its me)
Thank you.

Hope you get some answers, Yvonne, because I can't get pictures into the gallery, either, but I'm pretty sure you don't need a different password.

I can post them on the board, but when I try for the gallery, it says my pictures are too big.  Hoping someone with a Mac could share some information and help both of us? 

Thanks.

for the gallery you got to make sure your pictures are a maximum of 640x640 pixels. any good photo editing software should be able to do that for you.

there is a problem uploading pictures to the brag forum but you can still upload to the gallery.

Funny, I got one into the Brag Forum (April 6), but not the Gallery.  Sigh.

Okay, I just tried once again to load pictures into the gallery, one a project, and one a mug shot.  Both came back with "Not a valid picture file". 

Any hints at what I might be doing wrong?

what file type is the pictures your trying to upload?

[Coffeepot]

Sorry, that is a technical question and I'm rather clueless.     

Is jpeg a file type? 

[Keefie]

I just tried to upload a jpeg file that I knew was too big for the gallery and it came up with the same msg, "not a valid picture file", when I uploaded a smaller picture file it's ok and loads straight in, I think therefore that your picture size (in megabytes / kilobytes) is too big.

[Coffeepot]

Okay, thanks Keefie.  That's somewhere to start.

JPEG is a file type a very common one for pictures.i'm with Keith your pictures are to big.
