Help!

When I try to upload a photo (properly sized) I get the following message

Error: Filenames must not be blank, contain spaces, or contain any special characters. Letters and numbers only please.

Not sure how to fix this. The file name is done automatically when the imaged is scanned and placed into my document file as a JPG

Thanks

Go to where the file is stored through your computers file system and right-click on the muse Oops, mouse, (don't click the muse! Nooooo) on the file name and choose Rename. Remember to keep the file three-letter extension jpg or JPG or it won't be treated as a photo file.

You can put the words of the file name all together or use dashes or underscore characters to separate the words.

Plus... I can rename my files when I have the image up on the screen in "Microsoft Office Picture Manager" by clicking "edit" and in the drop down menu is "rename".
Maybe the picture viewing program you have will let you do something like that also, which might help of you can't find the file name on your system....
Regards
Gavin
