Yahoo!360: Why wont it let me upload a picture?

Question

I found a picture i want to use for my Y!A's avatar and tried uploading it onto 360. It is a Jpeg and under 5MB yet every single time i try and upload it it tells me its not a JPeg. Why?

Answer 1

It's just one of those Y!360 glitches. Try the following:

Paint is on most Windows computers with Microsoft software in the Accessories programs section.

- Open Paint, then open the image file from within Paint.

- Go to the File menu and Save As (perhaps as a different file name). Choose the JPEG option in the file type dropdown after you click Save As. Pick a quality level if that box pops up.

Sometimes re-saving the file in Paint helps when 360 does not recognize it as a JPEG. If you don't have Paint, just use any other photo-editing program.
