We were talking about this last night in the chat:

That's a link to where the "icon uploader" that my husband wrote is uploaded. You can download it there. I know there are other "uploaders" out there, but here's an option for you. :)

Okay, so I downloaded it... how do I use it?

I know, I'm slow, but I don't want to mess anything up.

Hokay... if you're on a PC:
-unzip the file
-put icons into the file folder with the "uploader.bat" file
-double-click the "uploader.bat" and enter your username and password

and it should upload all of the icons in the folder with the .bat file. :)

okay, so it went through the motions of uploading the icons, but when it was finished... I checked my icon page, and the icons are not there.

Did you download the one for greatestjournal by accident?

the icons cannot be in folders, either. You have to put them in the same folder with the uploader.

Nope, it says IJ right on the file.

The first try, I copied the uploader into the folder where the icons were located... the second try, I moved the icons to the file where the uploader was... both times, they didn't work.

Does it make a difference that the icons were saved PNG instead of JPEG?

I don't think that should make a difference... hmm. You could try saving them as jpeg.

I'd try uploading just one from the site to make sure that part's still working. And hang on, I'll ask Reeve, too.

I... can't save them at the source as jpeg... and I don't know how to convert them.

I tried a third time with less icons which I saved by actually right-clicking on them instead of dragging from the window into a folder, and still no go.

grr. Hmm.

Maybe try making a file folder called "uploader" on your desktop, move the icon uploader (the .bat file) and the icons into that file, and try again?

When it works successfully, a couple of other files should show up with your uploader and icons in the file folder.

What about the 'curl' (.exe) file?

Yeah, the times when I did upload it, a couple other files did appear.

Let me try, try again.

okay, Reeve says the curl file must be in the same directory as the bat file.

I'm sorry it's not working for you! Reeve says this is why he hates doing tech support.

Sorry for putting Reeve through this... I just wonder if it's me, or the uploader or what. I mean, I can just do the uploading the old way, but it would be a drag.

Sorry for disappearing! I had to go to bed, I thought I sent you a note, but apparently I didn't?

I'm sorry that it's not working for you. Did you try again last night?

I understand. <3

Tried one last time, but it still didn't work. I'm going to just upload my icons the old fashioned way, but thanks for helping me through.

Okay, without the curl.exe file there, the uploading process in the black box went super fast and still didn't take.

Added the .exe file and tried again.. still not working.

Both times using a newly made file folder, which I entitled uploader, to my desktop.

I'm sorry. :( I don't know! Maybe you could ask Amy? She might be able to give you some advice... I've got to get to bed. :(
