Hi everyone!
I've a problem with my profile picture, when I try to upload my image it appears this error:
This is not a valid image file.

Why? It's a .bmp and I've resized it to 150xa150 pixel... what I should do to solve the issue?
Thanx
Gabriel

    I think that may be the problem? You must have something like "Paint" on your computer? Have you tried saving it as a .jpg or as a .gif and uploading that? 150 x 150 pixels is certainly the size-limit for a "profile picture" ...

      Also even at 150x150 a Bitmap image may still be more then 100.0 KB.
      Right click the image on your computer and click on properties to see.
