Default Dumbfounded?

I know by now that I am not the brightest star in the galaxy BUT I will be darned that I cannot post a photo of my prized new 014.

I have even had my co-pilot press the buttons to no avail.

Every time the load throws a drop down that it failed to load. What gives? Size is well within the guidelines.

I am very appreciative of your time and effort. I have been able to post photos to a "thread or reply", have been able to put stuff in my garage etc.

What I have not been able to do is to see my profile photo appear in a reply or new post. Now mind you I am not a hound for publicity but it make me wonder how the rest do such.

I have selected a resized photo per the guidelines. Then when save and load it says each time the loading has failed.

Maybe I need to put a Sherman Tank in the photo??

Profile photos don't appear in posts. Only Avatars (to the left of your message) and signatures (below your message). You show to have an avatar. A few of these common questions are outlined in the Help Guide if you want to take a look:
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/help...elp-guide.html

The Upload Failed error is a general error like a Service Engine Soon light. However, usually, it means the file being uploaded is larger than allowed. Each area that you can upload to has specific limitations as outlined in the upload manager for those areas.
