    I'm trying to post to the trainstore a post regarding a ebay auction I have out there... and when I hit submit I get:

    Error creating thumbnail! Error code: 1

    Command: "/usr/bin/mogrify" -size 101x175 -quality 70 -geometry 101x175 /home/frisco/public_html/trainstore/data/15/thumbs/Switch.jpg

    I have tried both with a .jpg and a .png, and have made sure it's fairly small (212x366)


    Help!

    Thanks.

    I was able to post and upload pictures of various sizes, all jpegs. To upload pictures, I click on "browse" and then select the folder and file to be uploaded. I get no error messages.

    That is about the extent of my computer savvy.

    I'm getting the same error...

    Try posting one in the ebay auction forum and see if that works for you...

    I get those same error messages that you do. I think that is about linking to the ebay auction although it referenced the photo I tried to upload. I was not signed in to ebay when I created the link to the auction. Don't know if that makes a difference.

    This is the first time I have tried to post in the ebay auction forum.

    I've tried when signed in and when not... makes no difference.

    Maybe there should be just a regular forum for ebay links to be posted in, instead of in the trainstore?

    I just uploaded an auction in the Ebay Auction Forum. It works if you do not upload a picture. I would suggest creating a link to the picture in the narrative.

    I can top that for a suggestion... I used html to insert the img inline with the text...

    HTML:
    <html><img src="http://i.ebayimg.com/00/$(KGrHqIOKkQE3r7QqCd3BOCHsOCi1g~~_12.JPG"></img></html>
