problem with uploading images please help
Oct 3^rd, 2007, 12:19pm

Hi, I have tried to upload 2 images and it says they aren't acceptable because they are 72 dpi. But when I check them on my hard drive they say they are 300 dpi. I have tried 3 times to upload them. How can I fix the problem so I can upload the images? This is the first time this has happened to me just fyi, prior to these I have uploaded 28 images just fine.

We made a few server changes this morning, which caused the glitch in the upload process. Things should be back to normal shortly. I'll post again when this issue has been corrected. Shaun

Hi Shaun-

It's Monday evening, 10/8 and I'm having the same problem uploading an image. Over the past few months I've uploaded 40 or so with no problem (they all "meter" as Best) but this particular 2100 X 1500, 300 dpi image reads "72 dpi, resolution too low." So I guess the glitch continues. Maybe it won't upload because it's a Mother-In-Law Day card Roll Eyes

Please advise.

Thanks,
Pat 131634

Our test images were uploaded correctly, but please let me know if your images are still listed as 72dpi after upload. Shaun
