Your pic may be too big.
That's usually the problem if it says 'failed to upload'.
You may want to try re-sizing your pic.

oldpiglady.... I'm not computer literate but I was able to help another member load her picture when she emailed it to me. If you would like to do this route, please send me a PM and I'll try to post your picture for you.

I have to access QB thru google chrome to upload a picture here on the board. maybe my programs on the computer just aren't up to date enough otherwise.

If you have a regular computer (not Apple) you may have a program called Paint loaded on it. Paint is used to edit pictures. When you open the picture file in paint there is a tool bar at the top and on the toolbar toward the left hand side there is a Resize option. Click resize and a menu will pop up asking you how much you want to resize. I always change the 100 to 50 and with my pictures I have to do this about 3 times to get my pictures reduced enough. Make sure you save your reduced size picture before you close the program, then try to re-post it. I hope this helps. Good luck.
