Sometimes I get that message when I try to post images. I know Adobe Photoshop has multiple photo modes icluding RGB color and CYMK color. The boards don't accept CYMK for some reason. That's the only thing I can think of. The only other possibility is if the file size is too big.

The size is not the problem.. I have Adobe but I just saved it off of RCDB.com and made them smaller on Thumbs Plus... but i have posted these here before!

600x480 standard quality jpeg

Hmmm says it's too big, try 600x500... it must be file size, not resolution... can't any of the admins find out what the max file size is???

I s'pose I could keep trimming the pic down until it's accepted...
we'll see... I'll wait a couple of days for an answer from the admins first...

ah.. I cropped it, resized it - got it down to 330x500, 55Kbytes... and it took it!

so the size limit is somewhere between 68k and 55k...
