I use the browse feature and submit a jpg file from my briefcase. My camera is set on 0.8 megapixel. I don't get an error message, but no pic.

Please help,
Thanks

Hi Rick,

Many people, including myself, are able to upload pictures from our local machines. I have had two pictures that were rejected by the software. I couldn't find anything wrong with them but the software rejected them. I have no idea why. I'll try and see if I can find out more.

Bummer....it still doesn't work. There's a long pause before the page advances, then only the text shows up.

Ok, I have been unsuccessful in my many attempts to post a picture in .JPG format from the browse feature also, so here goes nothing!! We'll see if it works.

I can't seem to post a pic. either. I used to be able to post my photopoint pics with [IMG] tags, but that doesn't work any more.

Cool it worked! I didn't even know that thing was down there.:rolleyes:

Okay, at least now I get a file too large message. How do you folks make sure the file is small enough? I know it needs to be less than 128000 bytes.

Thanks for your help Debi. My Adobe only accepts .pdf files. What kind of Adobe are you using?

Thanks again,

I have no idea, my son put it in. I used to have Picture It, but the kid took it to college. I just export it to jpeg.

It says Photo Deluxe Business 1.0

Mark ,
I use ,Exif viewer,Corel photo,bittman imager,or Kodak.
I would think you would be able to change settings on adobe some how . I really wouldn't know how ,I'm not even sure how I've changed settings on mine in the passed ,but I have . That's why I thought I might have screwed up my computer :D .
