Posting Pics??
« on: December 02, 2009 11:17 pm »
For some reason I'm not able to post pics.  I've tried on two puters now to no avail. It browses OK and then when I try to add the pic it goes to a page where it says web page is not available. When I go back to origianal page everything is gone including text.

It usually works great and this time I'm stumped.??????

Jake, I'm computer stupid, but I think pics need to be in JPG format. Could that be it??

They are in jpeg and within the size limits.  Are from work camera.  I pm'd Tim and I think he's thinking about it. Thanks.

I took a look at these pics.  Strange deal.  What sort of camera is it?  Apparently it must have something in the file headers that crashes our thumbnail program.  I got them to work by simply opening them in Paint, doing a Save As .png, then Save As again as .jpg and they seem to work...

It's a Casio EX-Z9 8.1 pixels. I'll have to try switching them over tonight at home.  Not sure I have paint - will have to check.

Thanks for the help.

You will have "paint" under accessories. You can right click on the icon or thumbnail and select "open with?" and then you will have "paint" as an option.
