Hi all, I've tried everything I can think of, from changing the resolution of the image, to the size of pixels to the numbers quoted. I've read past treads I've looked at fags. Nothing seams to work.

In fact I was so put off I went on to another site and I found that I could upload with no problems. Is anyone else having problems like this. I really like this site but right now it's frustrating


Thanks in advance

JPEG and GIF image file formats only
JPEG: Less than 1280px wide by 960px high
GIF: Less than 550px wide by 450px high
At least 500px wide by 350px high
Under 512 KB in file size
RGB or Greyscale mode
Appropriate for all ages
Free of copyright violations (these are all Advantagemembers requirements)

These are the requirements, so, unless you are trying to enter an image before the contest has opened (non advantage) I can't tell you

What color space are you in? RGB or CMYK?

In most contests images must be a JPEG or a GIF file. The size of the file must be under 125kb in actual size. JPEG image dimensions must be less than 800 pixels wide by 600 pixels high. Animated GIFs must be less than 550 wide by 450 high. If you are getting an error message, try reducing the file size and/or dimensions just a bit and then uploading again. Upgrade Your Account to a PSC Advantage to break free of these limitations!

I think you should read the help page link above, and look at all the NON ADVANTAGE stuff on there, the images being smaller and lower kb and such....

Hi thanks for the info but as I said in my 1st post. I've done everything! apart that is sign up for Advantage and at the moment am not going to do that because I can't upload any thing at all. Doesn't matter if I've got the sizes right or not etc. I just get Error go back and try again and I do and that's it.

Thanks

you can upload up to 800 wide x 600 high. that's landscape.
If yours is 700 high it won't upload.
resize to 600 high
