[closed] Images not working
- 
					
					
					
					
 working fine for me. are sure you did all the steps, manager > upload less than 25 kb image > drag an image placeholder on UI area, select it and choose your uploaded image from the dropdown list? I have occasionally had weird results from certain files. Have you tried other files beside the one your trying to display?

 @lukasmaximus It will only allow me to upload BMP or JPG but Bmp have to be super compressed. 
 Yup followed those steps but just get a black odd shaped box.

 @ajb2k3 I had seen a tweet on twitter. JPG format needs some conditions. 
 ・progressive off
 ・not Matte colorand use MS paint is no problem.

 @ajb2k3 Great!!

 Is there a good tool in GIMP for compressing image files? @ajb2k3 I tried without success in photoshop before, perhaps its there but I don't know. It would be better however to have an open source solution such as gimp

 @lukasmaximus some formats gimp can compress, others need understanding of the file formats.
