I cannot upload a skin file

Sometimes, we all need a little general help.

I've been recently trying to upload a new skin, but when I choose the file (within 512KB, PNG image) it shows this

And I cannot do anything about it. I'll delete it, re-upload, and edit it but nothing seems to help.

So, does anyone know what's wrong, and what can I do to fix it?

* Clicked 'Upload Skin'
*Added a title, description,etc
*Selected the png file from computer
* Clicked 'SAVE' for the png image
*Clicked 'SAVE' for the upload.

-Error appears (look at link)-

And the little picture under file disappears when I delete it, but comes back when I upload any other png image skin.

Odd, not sure what's wrong here. Also believe this is a known issue. Regardless, here are some possible solutions:

  • Use a different browser such as Google Chrome or Firefox
  • Clear your web browser's cache/history
  • Change the file's name

If you're still not able to upload the skin, send me the .png file and I'll check it to make sure there's nothing wrong with the skin it's self.

I currently use Google Chrome, I tried it with IE and instead of the little picture under file it showed a red X on a small page.

I'll send over the PNG file now.
