    No amount of refreshing and going back fixes it, but I am able to upload other photos. I have two other photos that just won't load:

    I have had this issue before, too, just not on TB. Typically, there is something that thinks the jpg contains a virus. I have gotten around it by changing the compression of the jpg, and uploading again

    Possibly try renaming the photo? Could that be where the software believes there is an issue?

    I tried renaming it, but maybe I need to rename it something not so close. Compression? I'm a technotard... Not sure how to change that.

    No renaming I have tried will work. I have 5 or 6 photos now that just will not load.

    Do you have any photo editing software? Photoshop? Or even the older Windows Photo Editor? When you go to save a jpeg in one of those, there is usually a button to click, which gives you JPEG options. That is where compression settings can be found.

    Or, PM me, and we can exchange via a shared Dropbox

    Wondering- What about freeware such as GIMP, or IrfanView?
