How the hell do I upload pics to my archive? Just tells me they are wrong format JPEG

Pain in the arse got so stressed out the laptop got damaged, must be an easier way of getting photos on here?

one thing to note (certainly previously and I think still applies) is that all photos must have a unique name, so pic1.jpg is unlikely to work properly.
I suggest you prefix all your photo names with your username.

Tried that, renamed all, took ages , just seems so hard to either add a pic to a post or to the archive

Is it. Jpeg if so try renaming to . Jpg

Just a thought.

I upload them all to photo bucket then just copy the IMG link into my posts

Same here but with Flickr and use bbcode link.

I think you also get this error if the files are too large? So try resizing them, renaming them and uploading again?

As above. Try re-sizing to something like 800 x 600.
