I made a nude to post in the galleries...I made a Thumb that was done specifically to NOT show the Nude...and Ren's great new system made it's OWN thumb of the entire pick with full nudity showing...WHY did I waste my time making a thumb to be courteous of the subject being nude if it was superceeded by Ren's own system? 
???????
Hmmmmmmmmmm.......

You have to stick within the size restraints. I applaud you for making a pic to NOT show the nudity, but if your image is larger than 200 pixels by 200 pixels by 15kB, the system will reject it and create it's own thumbnail. N

Nope i know how to make a Thumb...it was 100x98 14.9kb! But ThanX for seeing that I tried! :)

It is possible that your software is not measuring 15k the proper way (just grasping at ideas here). Try editing it with, say, a 13k thumbnail and see if it accepts that one. If so, your software is underestimating the size of the thumbnail or underreporting it or something. N

The 15Kb that Rendo uses is 15000b.  Not the standard 1Kb that is 1024b per K.

14.9Kb can be as much as 15257b.  All of my thumbs are below 15000b, using the save-as .jpg convertor in PSP, and the options button leading to the JPEG Optimizer.

Actually, vikinglady, we will reject thumbnails that are above 15360 bytes (the REAL 15 kilobytes) and accept anything 15360 bytes and below. You are correct, tho, that 15000 bytes is really 14.6 kilobytes. N

OK I am trying again!!! ThanX!!!

Hmmmm...didn't work at all! I downsized it to 80X79 and at 13.6kb....it still came up with the same pic as the thumb that was generated by Ren!? :S
Oh well...
I tried
Ariana

That is weird. I can upload an image with a separate thumbnail just fine. :-/ I'm looking into it. N

ariana, you gotta delete the web resource from it prior to uploading.

Have you tried changing the name of the thumbnail?

Ahhh Ms nancy! I think it might be it...hawkfyr...I know about YOU! LOL! OK I will also rename it now. ThanX to you all I will post my success.....hopefully!

*see next post

Then I got THIS warning! :S  So I guess you ahve to look at her Naked!
Ariana

I thought the dimensions and KB in the warning are are for the main image, not the thumb.?. 

Beats me! I was just trying to be thoughtful...LOL! and look what happened! LOL!
Ariana

bummer! I reckon this means we cain't have teensy-weensy thumbs at 80X80 or so :lol: nor can we precede our thumb-names with the oft-berated ! symbol :lol:

"...hawkfyr...I know about YOU! LOL!"

???
Huh?...I'm not sure I follow.

I was serious about changing the name of the thumbnail.
Sometimes if a file fails,and you simply modify the file and re-upload it under the same name,the database will continue to load the first (unsuccessful) file.

It's a good practice to rename the file,by adding a character or two.

For example,...If "thumbnail.jpeg" fails,...I'll edit it and then rename the new version "thumbnail_2.jpeg"

I have had problems with uploading the correct sizes, but the upload won't take. I use Photoshop CS2. I vote that the problem is with R'osity's calculator. It seems I'm not the only one that had problems. However, today it seems to be working okay.

"...hawkfyr...I know about YOU! LOL!"

Yeah - enquiring minds wanna know.
This could prove to be quite inneresting.

Oh and hiya Tom! angelic grin

~arry ;-]

Good to see you Arry

I'm posting this here to add a Nudity advisory to this thread because of the image above.  I can't look at these threads flagged as such at work (too late for this one I'm already here).  Please flag your posts with images people!

Yes please be sure to flag any forum posts with the appropriate "flags" in the future.

Eek! Sorry for missing that one Giolon, I have flagged the posts appropriately now, thanks for bringing it to our attention. I agree, we need to be more attentive to what we post, and how we flag ;)

Hi I'm late getting back but mine was flagged I thought! Unless there is a way to do it I am not aware of....and on MY thumb I had a section of the pic that was unoffensive and it grabbed the whole shebang and would not release it for love nor money...*o'course I only have monopoly mony.....but anyways....And hawkfrye! Don't you know there is an advisory about you in the ladies room?!
hehehehe

Mr. Praline: 'Ello, Miss?     Owner: What do you mean "miss"?

     Mr. Praline: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint!

     Owner: We're closin' for lunch.

     Mr. Praline: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this parrot what I purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique.

     Owner: Oh yes, the, uh, the Norwegian Blue...What's,uh...What's wrong with it?

     Mr. Praline: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it!

etc ... (inspired by the topic title ;) )
