Postby trojan rabbit » Sun Apr 22, 2007 6:39 pm

It comes up with 'invalid filename'
i've tried renaming it (no spaces or %)

Any help?

I've uploaded literally hundreds of images & never seen that error message. What is the exact file name of the image you uploaded, including the file extension?

Your image is in the wrong format. BMP images are not allowed. Open it in a program like IrfanView & save it in JPEG format. Adjust the quality slider to make it below 100 Kb. I think it would be a lot easier if you use shorter file names when saving them. Something like tr-750.jpg

I can only assume a mod resized it for some reason. If so I would have thought they would have sent you a PM explaining why.
