Hi. I tried three times to upload a large image and thumbnail to the fractal gallery and had problems each time. The first two times, the thumbnail didn't load-just the empty box with red X in the corner-and the larger image looked awful-all pixelated. I deleted both times. For these two efforts I created my JPG files using Photoshop Elements 2.0. I read in another subject in the forum that Photoshop compresses JPGs too much so I converted to JPG using Infranview and tried to upload again. This time, after the upload page finished, I was taken to the main gallery page. I viewed the fractal page and there is no sign of either of my images. Anyone have any idea where they might have ended up? I don't even want them to post now, because I'm afraid the large image will still look awful and I won't catch it until later in the day after everyone has already seen it. Ugh. I appreciate any advice as this was my first attempt to put up an image in any of the galleries and I'm obviously upload challenged. Thanks. :-)
