I haven't, but here's a quick checklist:
1. Is it under 150 kb
2. Is it a JPG
3. Are there any dimensions over 640 pixels

Just keep trying and let it take the time that it needs to upload.

1. Yes, 148 kb
2. yes, jpg
3. no, x=403 and the Y=640

What I get after it thinks about uploading, I get this "An unknown problem occurred while uploading your file. Please try again." Not another page that tells me if my file isn't the right kb's or size, or even the format...hmmmm, perhaps if I don't make it with this file, Later I only could put it in the Habit challenge and go with the lamest title for it...My habit: Takeing great Photos.....:) this is just nuts. Thanks.

Hmmm, that is strangely odd. The only other thing I can think of is that the file might be corrupted. I don't exactly know what that entails, but since I well-familiar with computers, I have noticed that from time-to-time, you just get a bad file. What I would reccommend doing is tweaking the shot and resaving until it works. Also I have npoticed that when you are close to the 150 kb mark, that it doesn't always upload correctly, so I generally go down one more notch on the quality (which shouldn't be too terribly noticeabel) just to be safe. Try it again and let me know how it goes.
