Thumbs up

Everytime I post a pic it tells me I can't post that type of file. Then if I change it to jpeg then it posts but you click on it, and nothing show but a blank page. I try to post pics from MY pictures on my PC. Its not from a URL or anything.

You can't link to a file on your computer, you have to upload the pic. This is done by using the "browse" button from the topic posting screen.

When you change it to .jpeg are you just renaming it? You have to convert it, you can't for example just take a .bmp file and name it a .jpeg file and expect to open it. When you change the file to .jpeg can you open it?
