| FAQ - Profile Image Problems / Instructions to Upload
Posted: 5/17/2007 7:39:09 PM | I am new to this web cam thing and I tried saving some pictures that I took, and I saved them but for the life of me I do not know where they went or how to retrieve them off my computer.
I am used to the ones that come in an email that you save and it asks where you want to save or just puts them into my pictures file which is easy to find.
Any ideas for the coputer challenged. | |

Take another picture, when it saves it, take note of where it saves it to. Follow the path and voila! My webcam saves pics to its own file in My Documents/My Pictures/My Logitech Pictures usually.
Good luck! | |

| FAQ - Profile Image Problems / Instructions to Upload
Posted: 5/20/2007 7:08:39 PM | | I had problems trying to get new images for my profile. Tried 2-3 and was not happy with them. In trying to finalize, my guess is that my attempts exceeded 8 attempts and then all were knocked off. I have 2 new images I finally decided on and would like to get added. At the moment, my profile has no picture. Can you clear for me to post 2 photos? Please advise. | |

Posted: 5/22/2007 9:41:18 AM | You may also have Problems uploading your Image if ...
| 1. | Your Image is much larger than 3,500 Pixels on any Side. |
| 3. | Your Image exceeds more than 10 Megapixel. |
| 4. | Your Image already contains Compression Errors or is corrupt. |
| 8. | You are trying to upload a JPEG, not JPG Images. |
| 12. | You have re-named another Image Format, such as TIF, PSD, PNG, etc. to any of the accepted POF Extensions of JPG, BMP or GIF, hoping it would somehow upload. |
| 13. | You are uploading Word Documents, Text or PDF Files, etc. instead of Images. |
Items #1, #2, and #3 can be changed by using the "Crop" or "Resize" Function of your Picture Editor.
#4, #5, #6, #7, #8 and #9 by converting your Image to the uncompressed 24 Bit BMP Format before uploading it.
For #10, try re-naming your Image File.
For #11, upload a larger Image.
For #12, name the Image back to its original File Extension and convert to JPG, BMP or GIF before uploading.
In order to maximize the Area of your displayed Image on your Profile, use a Graphic Editor to crop your chosen Pic to an Aspect Ratio of just a Hair under 1:1.
The largest Size a Pic on your Profile can be displayed at in your Browser is 300 Pixels wide by 299 Pixels high.
Simply make sure that the Height of your Image is 1 Pixel less than its Width, such as 300 x 299, 600 x 599, 789 x 788, 1,153 x 1,152, etc. ... or any other Size you like, but not exceeding 3,500 DPI on any one Side. After upload, if you then click on that Profile Thumbnail Image placeheld as the Main Pic, then check the Properties Page, your Image(s) should read 300 by 300 DPI. The Thumbnail "Mouseover" pop-up Image will also be displayed at same Size.
1,200 x 1,199 DPI BMPs will give the very best Results, but sometimes these Images will not upload at all because they well exceed 5.2 MBs.
You can always upload any other Images sized any which Way under 3,500 DPI, but your Profile Display will not be maximized.
If only a Portion or Section of your Pic shows after Image upload, then reduce the Size of your Image and re-upload again. If the Background of your Image is "White", and has only uploaded partially, add a 10-20 Pixel black Border around it before trying to upload it again.
You can also now upload very narrow or wide Pics, but the Thumbnail Images will be rendered 'Proportionally Distorted'.
On another Note, a JPG Image is a Compressed Image, usually about only 1/7th the File Size of an uncompressed Image such as a BMP or a TIF. A compressed Image (JPG) will always suffer, among a Number of Things, loss of 'Contrast', meaning both the 'dark' as well as the 'light' Areas of the Image are missing some Details. When you upload a JPG to your Profile, the POF Image Compression Filter re-compresses your JPG Image again, losing even more 'Contrast'. For this Reason, should you need to resize or crop your Image, also reduce the 'Contrast a little, so your POF uploaded Image reveals a bit more Detail.
About Image Sharpening. Its generally not a good Idea to apply 'Sharpening' to an Image you will upload to your Profile, as the POF JPG Compression Filter will reveal severe Artifacting of your Image, usually making it look worse than before.
For Images that "appeared" OK on your Computer, but look awful after you have uploaded them to your Profile, unless your Image was partially corrupt, a Non-Standard or Proprietary JPG Compression Algorithm, its usually the Result of too much severe Compression one too many Times, causing extreme Amplification of Image Degradation.
You can only upload the JPG, BMP or GIF Format to your Profile. Since the GIF only has 256 Colors, and the POF JPG Compression Filter renders at the 24 Bit color Level, the Results after Upload are often poor. Uploading JPG usually produces mediocre Image Qualities on your Profile Shots, uploading BMPs cause the least amount of Degradation to your Profile Pics.
Taking a Pic of yourself using a Digital Camera in the RAW or TIF Image Format(s), if your Camera supports it/them, then converting to BMP and uploading to your Profile will produce the sharpest, clearest and most colorful Images.

| FAQ - Profile Image Problems / Instructions to Upload
Posted: 5/28/2007 7:30:06 PM | I uploaded four new pictures on Saturday, and it appears that the photos are there, but my profile hasn't been updated.
I received an error message today. I tried again today to upload a photo, using the instructions above, but again got an error messages. Most of my photos are the same size (three have already been posted properly), so I don't think they are larger than 4 MB.
I'm puzzled. What should I do now to get the additional photos uploaded?
Many thanks,
Edelweiss | |

Posted: 5/31/2007 5:36:18 PM | Hello..I have seem to have lost my image upload rights also.. I only had face pics of myself ..but I'm not sure if they were too large but they did load. When I wanted to change them, I deleted my old ones but have no browse button to reload. I really like your web site and would love to be able to have some pics on here and will be more aware of the size of pics being loaded. I would be very appreciated to have my privileges returned...Thank you | |

Posted: 6/2/2007 9:11:22 PM | I have been trying to upload photo's, but the hour glass is continual and no response advising theyhave been uploaded. I was wondering if the photo's are there for processing or should I try again?
Yes, try again. This may occur during heavy Traffic when Bandwidth is bursting at the Seams.
Is There a way to get my uploading privileges back?

You have likely lost your Pic Upload Privileges.
