Can you, say, do it again and tell us the error message?

We at VGF are usually helpful, but remember that we expect you to at least TRY first. We are not your first line of defense against inanity, that should be you. We are not omniscient, nor are we your pages and lapdogs.

[edit: sorry if it sounds like I'm a big meanie. This is not meant to discourage you or anyone from asking questions. But, please at least tell us a bit more info next time.]

It probably said that the picture's format was not supported. I got that too.,, Don't bother with the uploading process, just use Imageshack. ImageShack® - Hosting

If you're using mspaint (I'll go ahead and assume it's a .bmp), you can save it as a jpeg (File -> Save As...), which I'm pretty sure is allowed.

.PNG won't work for me.
Is there a image size or filesize limit?

80x80 and 12k, but I believe each of those has its own error.

It's actually 100x100. And 16k sized stuff works too.

Here's the story:
  • Spambot posts spamvertisement, bumping up an old thread.
  • Member 1 responds, in disgust, despite spambots not being able to read.
  • Admin deletes spamvertisement.
  • Other members think Member 1 bumped thread.
  • Hilarity ensues
The moral of the story? There is no moral; I just like stories.
