is there ANYTHING i can do?

Answer 1

Convert them to jpg.

If you have a photo program you can go in and save them as a jpg.

Good Luck

Answer 2

Pics must be in jpg, jpeg format for 360.

If you have Vista you can display pictures on your PC and then:

Step 1:  Push the PrintScr button

Step 2:  Open Windows Paint (found in Accessories).

Step 3:  Click Edit and Paste from Paint Menu.

Step 4:  Use Paint Selection Box, the rectangular-like item on left margin.  You click that and then you left click corner of your wanted picture and hold button down while rolling pointer to the diagonally opposite corner of the picture you want.

Step 5:  You click Edit from Pain Menu and then you click Copy to  and save your wanted picture in jpeg format to your Pictures folder.

Then you upload that jpeg picture into Yahoo 360.  I have done all of this several times, can do it in a flash.

But it will be slower for you if you do not have more than 20 years PC experience as I do.

Nevertheless, instructions here are complete.

When you are SAVING the Picture from PAINT, make sure it says jpeg format at the bottom of the SAVE dialog box.

You can use that same box to change pictures opened in PAINT from one format to another.
