Everytime I try to upload a jpg from my harddrive into my inventory, my entire screen turns to a jumble of small muti-colored polygons. No menus, no cursor. I have to log off and back on. A mentor at Public Help Island blamed it on my iMac (running Mac OS X 10.5.2). Suggestions?

Check to see if the jpegs are RGB, when i've tried to upload jpegs in CMYK SL just crashes on me.

Thanks, Dario. I'm new to Macs, and I didn't see any way in iPhoto to tell whether a pic is RBG or CMYK. Can it be done, or is there some quickie software I can download to tell me?

Apple's Preview will tell you.
Open up the image in Preview, go to the tools menu and open Inspector.

My friend who has a new model iMac has the same crash on upload problem :/
