Uploading failure to MG

as Geek*GHZ said above depends on type and size, what files were they and then we can give you a clearer answer?

did you also recieve any error messages?

 

max file sizes for images are 97.7kb, so i think your going to have to JPEG them to a smaller size, plus it's a good netiquette thing to do for the members that are on Dial-up as a 3.6mb image or a collection of them attached would load fairly slow.

 

Open up the images in your favored graphics/image software and choose "save as" and in the "save as type" drop down box choose JPEG,JPG.

Software options that spring to mind are if you dont have any.. are,

MS Paint ( built into the OS )
Paint .NET
XNView
Ifanview
The GIMP

bottom four available here http://www.majorgeeks.com/downloads37.html

 

Yes BMPs will be clearer than JPEGs as they are a lossless format, unlike Jpeg which does the more you edit the file loose quality, jpegs are good for emailing, posting on forums etc but the lossless formats of BMP, PSD etc are best for archiving.

I would keep if you want quality the BMPs but when the need arises convert the image to jpeg for emailing posting if high quality is not needed, if you are converting and the GFX app allows you to choose the compression for jpegs ( photoshop does ) still keep the compression at highest level ( 12 on PS ).
