I am trying to upload a 100x100 jpeg file that I use on many other forums. But I keep getting a "improper picture type" error ?

Happened to me. Didn't like the file extension 'jpeg'. Happy with 'jpg'. I opened the file in Photoshop and saved it as a jpg, then all was fine. Hope this helps.

I just tried to post a PNG as an attachment, it didn't like it. I opened the PNG in Paint (Win7) and saved as JPG, no problem.

I see that you solved your problem but at this time these are the only three extensions allowed.

I like your avatar quite a bit! It's been too long since I've seen "The Wall" so I should check it out again.

My wife has never seen it! I can't find it anywhere on the usual streaming sources. Seems like Netflix would be all over something from the 80's. LOL
I see some have uploaded in youtube, but in a bunch of videos in a playlist.

Thanks. It's my go to avatar. I use it on most sites. I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan.

When I first saw your avatar I thought it was Jerry Seinfeld. I've seen The Wall too.

LOL! That's what Seinfeld looks like when he hasn't shaved for a while and when he's really serious.

What's the deal with bricks? I mean have you SEEN these things?

Why must they be made into a wall anyway?
