You think that was bad? The blow-up sheep didn't have a barcode, it had a baaaaacode! Anyway, I think it's time to lay Dolly to sleep now, before you all think I'm really strange.

Bowing to popular demand (and also the fact that I've got a ton of boringh stuff I should be doing, but did this instead) you can now upload images that will be displayed in the 'who's who' pages, and next to your bio at the bottom of your articles. BTW - no abuse of this facility will be tolerated. Post a pic that is offensive, degrading or downright illegal and your account gets flagged as having no images allowed permanently. If the system is abused generally then it gets scrapped. "Don't you have more important things to be doing?" I hear you all cry. Yes. Yes I do. cheers, Chris Maunder
Think there's a bug in the script - it won't let me upload my image. Keeps coming up with 500 Internal Error on ../profile/store.asp. Maybe it took a look at my pic and decided the world wasn't ready to see me yet :) James Spibey I love the word naked, it's brilliant isn't it, 'naked'.

I think 150x150 is good enough. It's up to us to find a pic that is appropriate for that size restriction. Besides a picture that even has an identifiable image of the intended subject, the problem might actually be that some folks are using third-rate paint programs to make any adustments that might be needed. I use PaintShop Pro. The pic I posted is a crop of a larger photo, but Chris made it fairly easy on us. The max resoplution of the pic is *square*, so all we have to do is crop a picture so that the cropped area is square and resize the cropped area to 150 pixels. PaintShop pro makes this task almost brainless in it's simplicity. "...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001

They need to calculate the pixels from that, why not let us enter the pixels we want ? Christian I have come to clean zee pooollll. - Michael Martin Dec 30, 2001

It was taken in a client’s office. While waiting for the client (he was out of the room) an-ex-co worker, who was with me at the meeting, started 'playing' with the camera. :rolleyes: Then just as the co-worker said something (I'm not sure I should repeat it), the client came in the office. :-O "No one knows what power lies yet undevelopped in that wiry system of mine."

No, I figured it out after I posted this. Is your image size less than 20kb? Mine wasn't and when I changed it to 18kb it worked. Guess the error catching is foobar.

If I thought that leaving it to your imagination would make it worse I would just tell you. However, trust me it isn't. It's just one of those things you don't repeat :-O And since I've tuned some people I know offline into CP (including my 16YO brother who's taking a VB class in highschool:confused: ), I would rather it left at something unmentionable was said at a potentially embarrassing moment.;) "No one knows what power lies yet undeveloped in that wiry system of mine."

100 x 120 fits nicely in the 'biography' section at the bottom of articles. For a JPG or GIF, 5-10Kb of that size is normal, but for a bitmap, 35Kb is about right. I still get article submissions where the image format is .bmp, so I'm allowing this format for those poor souls. cheers, Chris Maunder

bmp is the biggest format available, as it does no compression, so 'even as a bmp' makes no sense. Convert it to a jpg using M$ Paint. Christian I have come to clean zee pooollll. - Michael Martin Dec 30, 2001
