RE: pictures upload
Check your file size. Files have to be 100K or less to upload. This is the only time I have seen a script error.Roger

RE: pictures upload
The screenshots from the game are in PCX format, and as you say, might be as large as 2MB (2000kb). You will have to resize the picture to 100kb or less to have it download.
I use Adobe Photodeluxe to process the pictures. I usually resize the pictures to 8 inch wide by 5 inch tall with 72 dpi (pots per inch) resolution, and save as JPG format. This results in roughly 90kb file size.
I'm told that there is a graphics program named 'irfan' which can do the same processing and is available on the internet for free. There has been a post on this topic here at train-sim.com in the past week, but the title slips my mind ATM. You might try doing a word search.

Normally, I use Paint and convert it to .jpg. I didn't resize it, but it went from 1700Kb to 20Kb!-------------My favourite LUL train-------------
