Hi Sumdude.
Here's what worked for me. Assuming your on Windows, right-click the image, open with Paint, once opend click File, Save as..., Change the format to GIF (only format that worked for me, both PNG and JPEG failed, don't know why) and save. You should then be able to upload this new image. Tell me if it worked.
If I assumed wrong about windows, euh..................:blushing::blushing::blushing:

Sorry dude !! I made a mistake. I was distracted when i tried to answer you. Actually, I tried several methods in a row the first I wanted to upload a screenshot, including the one with Paint. The one that really did the job was with Microsoft Office Picture Manager. You have to Export (in File menu). On right panel you select GIF as file format. But I'm sure other picture softwares might do the job as well in the same manner. You could also try Exporting from Photoshop to GIF format or from Macromedia Fireworks or Nero Photosnap. Hopefully you have one of them.
Sorry again for misleading you

I dont have any of those, where can I get them?

What error do you get?

Edit: It may be an issue with the extension being saved in all caps (I believe Paint does this). I've modified the upload script to the downloads center so that it allows both all lowercase and all caps for the file extension.
