Attention geeks! Your help is needed! :D (1 Viewer)

[Tom]

As I have alluded to in a couple of threads, I have some weird problems posting any kind of picture from my PC. When I view the picture on my computer, it is fine, but then when I post it, it becomes all screwed up and weird.

This even happens when I copy pictures others have posted on to my hhard disk, then re-post them! I have no idea what is the problem, and would be eternally grateful if any of you could help! thanks!

You shold have replaced "geeks" with Alex in the thread title

LIke that you would get his atention immidiately

 

[Tom]

good thinking!

but he said he didn't know what the problem was!!!

so I was hoping for some other geek with even more knowledge..if such a person exists!!

 

[Ali]

What format are those pics in?

 

[*aca*]

Alex doesnt know?:devil:



In any case, do you have anti-virus or some sort of programm that is running constantly and could affect data transfer?

although, even if this is the case, i dont think i could hel much, but it looks like the problem is in transfering data.

jpg..the other formats are too big for the attachment size limit!

yes, aca I got some kinda antivirus thingy..I'll try switching it off and posting again in a minute

[Ali]

What is the version of your browser am assuming it is Internet Explorer?

 

[Ali]

The antivirus will not do that and don't switch it off.

 

[Tom]

ok the antivirus is not the problem, as seen by that terrible picture above

I have internet explorer 6, Ali

 

[Ali]

One way of corrupting a phot would be to open it using a wrong program but am assuming you didn't do that.
Damn this is tough ..... let me think

 

[Tom]

well here proves that I haven't got to use any wrong programme and it still doesn't work!!

here is one of your safari pics..I just copied it to my computer..and here it is again

 

[Tom]

aah man where is the weird light blue bit this time?

ok so this time it just decided to fuzz your picture up a bit so you can't tell what its suppposed to be!

 

[*aca*]

what is your default program for seeing jpg or gif files?

 

[Tom]

erm, its called 'windows picture and fax viewer'

apart from that, I've only got ms paint, and another programme to re-size pictures

 

[Ali]

Do you have Microsoft Photo Editor?
That comes with Windows XP right?

Do you have Microsoft Photo Editor?

no, don't think so :redface:

but surely i don't need any of these programmes to be able to post a picture properly!?

 

[Ali]

I know but if you had an alternative you could use it so that we can troubleshoot and maybe identify the problem. We need to rule out 'windows picture and fax viewer' as the cause of your problem.
