submitting artwork

For whatever reason, I am unable to submit png images that are less than 2KB. At first I thought that my larger images that were 1.9 KB were not working because they're still too large, but even small images are not submitting for me, and I continue finding this error:



The file specified does not meet image requirements. (Inserttitleofartworkhere.png)

Size: 200952 bytes

Type: image/x-png



Does it have to do with the "x-png" thing? I don't think I understand... are there different types of portable networks graphics, or something?



*is confused*

Hmm... well, I tried converting one image into a GIFF, to see if that would make a difference, and it did submit, but I got the check box thing in the icon, so I don't know if anyone can actually see the image other than me. I would like to know how I'd be able to submit my PNG images, though, because that's actually my preferred file format.

Hmmm, I just did one, and it worked.

No idea what the x means though.

Hmm... I converted it to a png in CS2, so I don't see how this would cause problems... unless Photoshop has a different type of png, or something, which could be likely.

Mine was CS2 also. Maybe Brian would know.

Hey, maiden light. Sorry I didn't see this earlier, I've been cranking away on a ton of updates.



You were right that the problem was with the "x-png" file type. I've modified the upload script to accept those files now, so you should be all set. Thanks for pointing out the bug, and let me know if you experience any more.
