Hi apl3d Photoshop adds extra "stuff" to files when you save as a regular file. If you are using Photoshop for your thumbs, you have to save them using the "Save for Web" function :) Hope that helps Dee-Marie

Guys I would like to thank you again for solving my problem and of course to Renderosity. I really appreciate your kindness... Now my thumbs are all fixed! I can now upload 200 x 200 pixels as small as 6 kb file size. Before I used to sacrifice and shrink my thumbs just not to exceed 15 kb. I know that its not only me will benefited this but also to those who exercising the same problem especially at the beginners gallery. I hope you guys continue helping others. Keep it up! And more power! Have a nice day! :) APL3D
