No longer able to add screenshots.

Whenever I try to add a screenshot to a game entry, where the screenshot should appear after uploading it, I get a bunch of text like this:

Someone who know how to read this, could look into the issue, please.

That's strange. Just tested it and it works for me.

Do you have JavaScript turned on?

Checked again, JavaScript is turned on with both browsers I'm using.
The issue still happens with Safari (4.0.2), but Firefox 3.5.1 made the job, recently succesful tested with games/appleworks-504 and games/megaroids.

Safari still rejected the pictures.

I also got the same msg after uploading a CD-ROM image using Safari.

So I think I've to switch to Firefox to browse Macintosh Garden in the future.

I just tried Motor Bike, i had no problem.

I see, other peoples also run into problems when using Safari with this site.

I didn't changed anything between functionality and non-functionality with Macintosh Garden uploads.
Firefox do the job from now on, for me.

I use Netscape Navigator 9.0.0.5 for everything and While it let me browse, and upload Pics,
some of the upload App or game files, the upload buttons don't show, so I can't upload game files and I use Explorer 8,

When I use Safari and I just want to upload just one screenshot, I get the exactly the same problem as you (IIGS_User)

but when I use Safari to upload either an App or a game with screenshot (the whole package)
it works fine,

So just for uploads, I use only Explorer 8,

I also get the page loading problems when uploading large files, also get a connection lost message. But that's just my internet connection playing up.

In other words we need a better solution to upload files. Once MacGarden gets a new server this might be possible.

I use Safari & the image upload-as-text thing happens to me, too.

Switch to Firefox, like me.

I'll fix it when I have a chance. Probably sometime next week (this week I'm way to busy).
