      I can load it, it just doesn't have a picture. I had that error for a while, and I think I uploaded one successfully, but it was too big, and now the server won't let me upload one at all. Christian I have come to clean zee pooollll. - Michael Martin Dec 30, 2001

        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

          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'.

              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."

                          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
