ellieee Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 I have turned here for help as it seems i really do not have a clue about computers. I want to upload photos into photo sharing sites such as Photobucket, Flickr, Myspace, Tinypic etc, but when ever I try to do so i does not work. The image is uploaded but broken up into several pieces, parts of it in different colours or for example, if i am trying to upload a black and white photo, half of the image is obscured with a grey block of colour. I recently did a complete recovery of my computer, it had various spyware and i was generally fed up with it's poor condition, I thought this might solve the problem but i have just tried to upload a photo and realised the problem is still the same. I would provide a picture as an example of how the pictures look when they are uploaded, but of course i cannot get them into an image hosting site! Somebody i asked said something about being corrupt, so is it a problem with the files themselves or with my computer? They are all relativly small Jpeg files so there really is no reason for there being a problem with them. If anybody could give me any help regarding how or if this can be fixed i would be immencely grateful. Thankyou! Quote
bigmack73 Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 you may want to contact the webmaster of the those sites. Quote
ellieee Posted February 13, 2007 Author Posted February 13, 2007 thanks, I'll try that, but i think it's probably something to do with my computer rather than the websites. Quote
SS Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 I'd be interested to know where these images are getting encoded into JPEG format. Are they coming directly off a hardware device (digital camera, mobile etc) or are you running them through some software first? It sounds to me like they aren't being created properly. Quote
ellieee Posted February 22, 2007 Author Posted February 22, 2007 initially i thought it was because i was editing them on paint shop pro, but i've now realised from trying to upload different files it must be all pictures on my computer- straight of the camera, saved from a website, edited in various programs, webcam pictures etc. Quote
Jamey Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 I think you should try the same photo files on a different computer at home, if you have one. Then you will determine whether it's your computer, the files you are uploading or the websites themselves. Quote
