Had to minimize sl and open gimp to change file type on several jpegs I tried to import this morning. Seems you can only import targa type files atm.

OMG!! Is this correct? Not just a problem you are having? Im not a graphic artist or anything - dont design clothes or anything but do sometimes need to import graphics for one reason or another. Almost without exception they are jpg format - will be seriously annoying if I have to convert them before I can upload them :/

My mate had the same problem the other night, so I tried uploading jpegs and had no issues. Not sure what the problem is, but I can guess its very irritating. Then again...that was during the timeframe that SL had issues with http or something (looks dumb) and evidently LL fixed it so ~shrugs~
