Hello, man I have been getting frustrated trying to upload a picture for my profile picture on my account. I see the file size has some limits. "Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 100 by 100 pixels or 64.0 KB (whichever is smaller)."
Yes that makes sense to me. So I selected a picture file and modified it on my Microsoft Paint software to reduce it to a 20KB and 97 by 75 pixel file. Then wen I went to upload the fie, a note popped up saying "The file upload failed".
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Eddie

Might something as simple as what type of file did you save it to that may not jive with the forum programming, is it j.peg?

Thanks for the reply. Yes it is a jpeg. It is so bizarre. I was going to use a pic of my B50.... I am pretty savvy on this type of stuff. I will try to dink around with it later when I have a little more time. Hopefully soon I will get some threads started on the construction section with some of my projects and machines. For now here is a link to one of my videos on my youtube channel:

I (just like everyone else) enjoy you videos and appreciate reading your expertise on this forum.
Thank you,
Eddie
