Attaching Images - utter frustration

Hey guys.. I've been lurking for years on this forum, and have recently found myself over on SCI more and more. First Panjo (universally accepted now), and then today, I spent a better part of my morning trying to attach a couple images.. or not attaching images. Evidently the jpeg image is not valid.. like a 100 times. And yes, it is a Jpeg and is under the required size, and I currently have 25 images posted throughout the website.. so I have no idea what is wrong. This is all after I jumped through the hoops to reset a password to NASA specs. I apologize for the rant.. no actually I don't. Is this getting harder or am I just becoming my father...? and I had some pretty cool stuff to show you guys. I'll post it on SCI if you want to see them.

Dude you are not becoming your father....I am :>( We just joined and cant upload any pics and as far as thumbnails go ....I banged my head on that wall until my head was formatted....I like you got the exact same errors...yes errors Im quite sure we were doing everything by NASA specs....actually worked for NASA for a bit...great place...easier to get around in then the up-loader and requirements....

We even went as far as to downloading a thumbnail maker and it failed even when compressed 50% less than the reported specs needed for dementions and 4.5 kb....ouch...

Anyway not complaining either look for VIASUE in the SCI manufacture direct forum....well be here as well and need to contribute more than our failed efforts to date....

As a newbee we also need to make at least 4 or 5 posts in order to leave links of any kind....with the problems with uploading and thumbnail ...we thought it was newbee restrictions but no...this is our 2rd post...first post was::
VIASUE RC VRS TRACKMATE....but cant link you to it ....due to restrictions ...ooops rules ...

Rules are a good thing...so is paying our respects to them ...even though we want life to be easier ...well PLUG&PLAY .....which is VIASUE and RC's Combined Achievement for all track owners

Photos..

So.. I ventured over to SCI.. dropped my dimensions under 500.. and within secs had a nice pic of a P510K Aurora push car on a thread.. It played out exactly like it did in the past here. Here.. no dice. "Invalid file or something." Seems as though you can't post the same pic here as you can over on SCI. I'll continue to lurk here as usually, but won't be sharing any pics.

Again.. why so difficult? And wow.. I listed a couple items with Panjo.. with the fees I might as well put em on ebay. I digress.
