I recently tried to upload a couple of pics to the gallery. It gave me a form validation error, saying that the size must be between 100 and 4000 pixels. I rechecked the pics, and they are 360 x 280 pixels. Anyone got any ideas? Please!

That's an odd error paragon5! What format are the images in? Can you try again today and see if you get the same error? If you do I'll take this to the mod squad and see if someone can help us out!

I had a similar problem with a thumbnail image which the form validation error said was in excess of the 200 x 200 pixels. I have my thumbnail application set to a maximum of 200 x 200 and when I checked the size it was only 180 x 200 (and under 15kb) so I uploaded the same image again and it went up fine. I've noticed quite a few changes on the site recently so I'm guessing the system is perhaps a little 'testy' for now.

Thanks for the replies. I changes the size from 360 to 450 and everything went through just fine.

Hello All! I've only been here a week, but I've had some intersting problems uploading images and activating some links like Add To Your Favorite Artists or Images. Most of the time everything works smoothly. A couple of times when I wasn't able to upload, as well as other 'operations', I've found 2 solutions. One is just to wait a few hours and try again. Usually works on this 2nd try. Alternatively, so far, when I have a problem with MSIE I've switched to Netscape (both the current versions). It has worked every time I've tried it, but I'm the first to admit that I don't have much experience here yet.
