Might be too big, you also have to click on 'upload' AFTER choosing the picture from your computer.

Amx is correct. There are several possible problems. The I see the most are file names with characters such as ! or # or @. That does it every time. Here's a link with some tips:

What I just posted in 'that other thread' that Mike just posted the link to;
Also after reading this whole thread I noticed that Mike said that if you pick your picture, THEN write the report and if it takes 10 minutes to write the report, the PICTURE info is lost due to some 'time out thingie'.

What I have always done is write the report, THEN pick the picture, THEN click on submit, and all is well. :-)

So ya'll might do it that way. write first, pick pictures last.
