uploading photos "corrupt files"

[etc3rock]

I haven't listed on ebay in a few months. When I try to upload photos I get a "corrupted files" error message. I tried the simple listing tool and my photos uploaded.  I have an old coolpix camera and I jpg my photos at 90 instead of 72 because years ago someone said that's what works best with ebay. Any suggestions or ideas?

actually when I save for the web they are sized at 72 with adobe photoshop elements

90 vs 72 shouldn’t matter.

Grab a photo from somewhere else and try to upload it.

thank You. I've been trying different photos. I tried the simple listing page and the photo just stuck. I couldn't ad any others. My camera is so old... my photos are at 2.22m after I edit them.

2.22 megabytes? That’s much larger than necessary.

Have you tried a photo that didn’t come from your camera?

Maybe you need to replace the sd card?

I need to learn how to upload from my iphone. I don't have another photo I can think of. The only thing I can think of is I tried to upload photos fom my iphone & they opened in adobe bridge but that is not what these photos I have now came through. I've uploaded so many photos before? What would be a good megabyte amount to upload to ebay with?

My compact flash card was so low so long ago the camera wouldn't accept a larger MB. I think the memory card I have in it now is 256 MB 🙂

i checked it's 64 mb...

i checked it's a 64mb compact flash. photos that i had in a listing that didn't sell i tried to relist and they came back as corrupted when they loaded fine when i first loaded them a couple months ago.

what would be a good size to try in gif, png-8 or png-24, which is the options adobe "save for the web" has? The "corrupted error" has a bunch of other options.

weirdly if I use safari instead of firefox the photos take?

[etc3rock]

So I don't know what's up with firefox and noscript v lebay but I was able to list using safari..................................................................... if anyone knows le key I LOVE FIREFOX & NOSCRIPT

[etc3rock]

le key to uploading to ebay from firefox............................

anyway always learning on ebay when posting on the discussion boards. one thing leads to another. I learned one can now schedule by the minute. I never used that feature because it used to be by the quarter hour.

I'll figure out why the corrupt happens. It may be my computer. I can list with Safari so that is OK.

Will also try to find out the best size photo to upload to ebay from an imac with adobe photoshop elements.

Thank You for responding. Who knows?
