Uploading images in portrait format

[David Hyde]

Hi, I am probably being thick but my upload in portrait format is being rejected as being too small. It states the min file is 800 x 600px. My file is 800px high by 600px wide. The category is mammals. I have looked at others in the Gallery, some appear to be 880px high by 660px wide. I tried this but still too small!!
My file is under 500kb in size, some appear to be greater than this in the Gallery. What am I missing (apart from a brain).
Perhaps someone can suggest a useful size. Many thanks.

No, you're not the only one that's been caught out - the width has to be at least 800 - when it states 800x600 it is being absolutely literal - 600x800 is not the same thing so if you want something in 'portrait' your mimimal size is actually 800x800 (which isn't really portrait, I suppose .... ). You'll get there in the end!
