RE: HOW MANY MEGABYTES IS THIS (in reply to edgar884)
i feel a sudden urge of nerdiness welling up! it's actually 8.192MB since a KB is 1024 Bytes. everything in a computer works in numbers that are power 2, that's why you always see figures 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 etc. so, in a binary world 1024 is a round number.. also Mb and MB are different animals. b for bit, B for Byte Byte = 8 bits.
don't encourage me, i might start drawing diagrams of ripple-carrey adders and crap. my mind is polluted by useless computer knowledge..

If you guys don't stop all this dirty talk I'm gonna start another thread about..... I don't know.... make-up. And I'll keep replying to myself to keep it going.
Hahahaha - decided to delete my original comment. A bit too much tmi

Now I've asked you nicely to stop. Obedience is just not your strong point is it?

still doesn't work. same error message. tried different files. .jpg and .gif 100x100 and 5-10KB. perhaps someone else can try it to see if it's just from my computer/account.
