Do you think it feaseable to have on our photo upload page some basic info about what is ok to use ..e.g. You can upload pictures in these file formats:
BMP (.bmp file extension)
GIF (.gif file extension)
JPEG (.jpg file extension)
PNG (.png file extension)
TIFF (.tif file extension)
and maybe the maximum size allowed in pixels or megabytes as this would save time for both of us when I upload a pic that is to big and have to resend smaller image .
just a thought, thanks for your time xx

Excellent question Briskem. I have recently been making another version of the uploader but due to other duties i've not got a lot of time for YSP at the moment :( Rest assured though, all your ideas are in there!

Uploads are a tricky thing, and whilst the max upload size is huge, the code that actually resizes the image is a bit flakey on big images and sometimes crashes - It's something i've not been able to debug with any amount of success but i shall keep trying :)

Richard you are doing sterling work, I have to say I am impressed you can do these things.

Briskem1 - you have some pretty good ideas, I am also impressed...I wish I had as much technical knowledge as you, I am a bit shaky on these things!!

I hate to say it but ..Toluna didn't like my stuff , so I migrated to a wonderful ,homely site called ysp and if no one minds i would like to bring my special friends along ,some are already here before me,and some want to feel as good as I do being a member of something special..

Aw, that's nice, briskem1 and the more the merrier we say, especially if there are more and merry members! That is hard to say after you have had a few...:)
