"The error returned was:

 

You are not allowed to upload that type of file as an avatar or personal photo"

perhaps the file was in the wrong format - try converting to another format first

just because the extension says jpeg doesn't mean that they are in any standard format try using gif format (I think that its less variable - at least I've had less trouble with that format in the past).

There are various types oh JPG format it will always save in lossy format but it must be RGB not CMYK format and best at 72DPI for internet use. if you use any higher resolution the size may be too big.

surely that what you expected .. doesn't it say that will happen (haven't read the blurb for years)

 

PS hope you've recovered from the P..s up .... Oh sorry the Prom

lol yeh, iv just about recovered, not old and doddery yet!

 

what i mean is.... when it re-sizes (normally) you can still clearly see the picture, but on that one, its crap?

Oi .. you implying something ...

 

 

as to the image if you are taking every fifth pixel you could be just unlucky in the ones it chooses whenit resizes- how about resizing in something you have control over then uploading the final image - eg irfanview, photoshop etc
