Picture

See the tutorial for detailed information, but you need to be aware of the restrictions which the forum software places on files.

- Files must be less than 100kb in size, and be saved in .jpg format. The raw picture from a typical modern camera will usually be way too large; you'd have to use a picture editor to shrink it. While you're editing, crop away all the blank space or background that isn't part of the coin you're trying to show; that will save even more space.

- Filenames must have just letters or numbers in them - no spaces, no special characters like #, _, $ or (. The default name most camera software gives a picture is often full of special characters. Examples: "My Picture.jpg" is not a valid filename. "My_Picture.jpg" is invalid, too, as are "$5coin.jpg" and "coin(old).jpg". But "SWA5265Dollar.jpg" and "isn'tItAPrettyCoin.jpg" are legal.

- If you try to download two photos with exactly the same filename on the same day, the earlier one will be deleted.
