Answer 1

I can't think what you are doing wrong, cos mine worked ok! When you go to Facebook to edit your pictures, go to the "recent scans" when you browse rather than your "pictures". Does that help at all, or is it me talking nonsence?!  Hope that helped.

Answer 2

What format are they?  You can tell by clicking the file in Windows and looking at the details box or status bar.  I'm guessing they're probably some odd image format that facebook doesn't allow.

You should be able to open them with an image editing programme and save them as JPEGs.  Facebook will show them then.
