I have filled in the details then I 'browse' to find my picture on my desktop and open it, it then shows the details in the bar next to 'browse' then that's it. It comes back to me as 'drowned'.......what am I doing wrong please???

Hi Scoobydoo , it worked for me , try not posting a picture , i have never seen a picture attached to any event advertised , so perhaps it does'nt accept pictures even though it says it does . give it a go

Regards , Simbas

=> What is the filename of the picture you try to upload? It should be filename.jpg or filename.jpeg or filename.gif or filename.png .



If - for some reason - you don't want to write down the filename here: email me hansdoeleman@allcrusades.com and I'll help you upload the picture, poster or any graphic you choose. (I'll be back in the afternoon).

Thanks Simbas, I have actually posted the first night of Carmina Burana 2nd Sept without the picture but because it said I could post a picture I wanted to try!

DC,



The file name is JPEG, I am going to be busy late this afternoon but will email you later.



As I said in msg 7, i have posted the event for the 2nd sept but also want to post it for the 3rd sept and would be great if I can get the poster attached somewhere!!



Thanks for your help

=> ... and I'll be out tonight to watch the match "the Netherlands - England" So I'll read your email tomorrow morning and then help you. Don't despair...



P.S. Just to live up to my reputation - here follows a free lesson: .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .png, .tif or .tiff and dozens more are called extensions (for graphical formats)... So it is: filename.extension Forget it... CU virtually tomorrow!

Save your poster as a .jpg file and then upload it as a picture. It does work example http://www.cyprus44.com/events/477.asp

Good morning, scoobydoo! I received your scanned poster and did some things to make it ready for the net. When you click this URL http://tinyurl.com/n7hw3b you'll see the result.



I've sent you email with your poster (cut from the original scan - which was far too large! - and is now 72 dpi, 75% screen quality, 520*762 pixels) attached. I suggest you try again to upload it in Events. This facility of cyprus44 does work!



If you still can't do it, let me know and I'll write down 1-2-3 etc how you have to do it.



Good luck!

=> AndyP, I uploaded a wrong link in msg 13. I already agreed with you (see msg 11) that uploading pics in cyprus44 "Events" works fine.

DC,



Many thanks for your help, I had no idea the picture was too big. Anyway, I have tried again with the resized picture you did for me and it went, I am now just waiting for it to appear on the events listing.



Once again, thank you.
