Arrrrggghhh! £$%&* pictures

Postby Quantum John on Wed Aug 14, 2002 9:53 am

I can't get my pictures uploaded.
The turbosport site always produces an error when I try to upload and the rsoc site isn't working at all.

Are there any others?

Cheers,
John

Thanks Adrian,

BUT I keep getting a "this page cannot be displayed" screen whenever I hit the upload button.
I am trying to upload a jpg image that is 197KB.

Ideas?

That was the wierd thing. I made it smaller to get it to 58K using MS Paint and when it appeared in my gallery it was huge again. Think I have sussed it though using Image Viewer.
