What type of image do I need for Johhny5?

When I try to use my own image, an error occurs and the program exits.  Here are the images I'm trying to use.  They are .jpgs.

I just tried em and they work fine.  They are in your layouts/images folder right? 

Post the error and we'll see.

Is there a limit on how big the picture can be?  If I use the original, I get the error.  If I use the ready for internet, it works. :dizzy:

There isn't any limit per-say, but I figure if you use some kind of gigantic file it could have trouble with it. 

My guess is you saved to an improper format.  Remember, jpeg... just jpeg, not interlaced, and no fancy crap.  Also save as rgb, not cymk.  These aren't requirements as such, but I've seen photoshop and various other image editors totally screw up a jpeg if any of those options are used.

The problem was that it was saved in cmyk.  I changed that and now it's fixed. :cheers:
