I won't be able to look at it until Thursday. My Internet is intermittent.

What is your login name in chat? I can't seem to find it.

The webpage manager does not support folders.

I tried uploading a png to your folder and it worked fine.

It may be a file name problem.

  • Go to the wepage manager for your account.
  • Click on the "Browse" button.
  • In the "File upload" dialog box, select the file you want to upload and then click "Open".
  • The preceding step will fill in the complete filename to a text box.
  • Cut and paste the test version of the complete filename to me from the text box on the webpage manager and send it to me in pm on the forum.
  • Click the "UploadFile" button.
  • Cut and paste any error message to me in pm on the forum.

I noticed you have not uploaded any files at all. Try uploading a simple html file.

ooooooh ok. glad to know the folder option isnt there, over me wanting to stab my browser again. =D

Alright. I logged in and tried to upload this.
the original file name is just 'sarant-moon.png'. photobucket adds the letters and numbers now.

http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f44/xfyrechyldex/mtc/sarant-moon_zps437ff2ff.png

this is whats displayed as the error

filename must end in one of the following
.htm .html .gif .jpg .png .bmp .mid .wav .zip .swf .mp3 .css .txt .doc

Hit the Back button on your browser and try again.

thank you for the help in this. i can be pretty blonde at times. -l-

The error message needs some work.

It doesn't like the dash "-" in the filename. Try to limit filenames to capital letters, lowercase letters, numbers and the underline "_".

oooooooh alright. that makes perfect sense. I seriously should have thought of that...
but 3am calls about things and staring at a white forum with messed up eyes will fry anyones brain.

thanks so much.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Also you might want to look at how long the filename is as well for Maze, I think I recall running into a problem on my own cause the filename was too long....as well as the special characters in it.
