I don't have a Mac to test with, but the process is identical.

Andrew.
The problem seems to be the file extension....
I had to Resave it as a jpeg.
Sounds like a photoshop problem...
if you have the same VER of photoshop as he.. you would be able to open it no probs...

Oh and by the way... Andrew, whats teh go with this "Insano Dub Head"????
DUB HEAD?

Okay, if you're on a Mac, you have to do the Windows file extension thingy. File typing doesn't work with the code - it specifically checks for a few file types.

You must end JPEG images in ".jpg" and gif's in ".gif"

blah.jpg - JPEG
blah.gif - GIF
blah.png - Portable Network Graphics
blah.bmp - bitmaps

The code is pretty much prepared to accept any old file if it meets these two extensions.

Andrew,

I still can't attach anything either. I've tried less than 50kb, jpg and gif, from different PC's, and different browsers [ie and netscape]. Is there anything else within my profile that I should modify?

Squiz.......

As Andrew has said.

Save it as a JPEG with quality = 65. That allows huge images with half decent quality.

Just use a simple picture programe.
I use Compupic pro.
But there are many more out there.
Try doing a search at www.downloads.com

I use the Gimp. It's not for everyone, but it's about 90% of the features of Photoshop, but free.

Also, MacOS X has an inbuilt resizers. Windows XP - download the resizer powertoy from Microsoft.
