Picture Is Showing Up As a Black Square
« on: November 18, 2013, 08:45:39 pm »
On this item I submitted:

http://vgcollect.com/item/50301

On the back photo, after it uploads it just shows up as black. But it is a picture on my end, that I can see, open, manipulate on my computer, all the works. Any idea why it would be doing this?

It's supposed to be a bunch of screenshots with a short description of the game underneath them (Like the Nintendo: Now Your're Playing With Power Poster) on the back.

I saw that when I approved the edit. I figured the back of the poster was black. I was wondering why you even bothered to scan it.  :)

The site can't handle the picture. Either it's too big or just weird.

Try opening it and saving it again so it's recompressed, then upload that.

I sent an edit, with the pic resized to a smaller size. Not sure if it went through or not, though, since it froze up while submitting.

I've been adding like crazy to the Swag sections, since those seem to have most glaring holes.

I just approved the edit.  Whatever you did seemed to work.

Thanks.

Damn IE kept freezing up on my while submitting the edit. Since the Windows 8.1 update, IE has been a mess. YouTube is unusable on it.

I think I'm finally forced to move to Google Chrome. I'm stubborn to change.

Don't worry, Youtube is unusable on anything these days. ::)

And I hope you like having every one of your movements tracked by Chrome!
