Have you already tried another pic? What I want to say is: is this a common problem you got, or is it this specific file? Maybe try uploading another pic and see if that works...

btw: you aren't yet allowed to enter this months contest - only for members registered before 1. Sept.  :P

all the same error?

Maybe try and send me one of those pics attached to an e-mail and I'll see if it works to see if it's the pic or maybe your system...

Had to rename it because some "Flacon50.jpg" already existed (the scnd pic) but after that I had no problem uploading it:

...and the one that was already present on the server:

So it worked here: must be you or your system; just a hint: don't use space in the pics name (use _ or - or whatever you like) - it won't work until you replace the space by (I think) %20% in the tag...
