april1212 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I am having a problem - I edit my photo in paint.net with text and save it as a jpg. - then I try to upload it to my cpanel to add it to my website but the edited picture will upload but not open. However if I upload the photo without adding text in paint.net, the picture opens in cpanel. Why do you think this is happening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oma Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 you made sure you flattened it and haven't tried to upload a pdn file? Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
april1212 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 I don't think I did flatten it, how exactly do I do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oma Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 open the file again in paint.net along the top of the screen left side it gives name of file if it says aprilsfile(or what ever you called it) .pdn you didn't flatten. file>saveas > filename and the drop down file extension of .png or .jpg. I know you said you saved it as a .jpg but just recheck it was flattened and saved as .jpg and you didn't just clik save. also I've had problems where I had two "." in an file name for safety sake I'd make a copy first before you try any changes to what you've done so far. Just incase you want to come back and rework on this again. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
april1212 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 No, it is definitely saved as a .jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 april1212, Could you post one of the corrupted .jpg files as an attachment, as suggested by Boltbait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
april1212 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 here is a "corrupted" file - that is, when I upload it to my cpanel, it won't open in my cpanel html editor what do you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
