I'm getting that error message with some .jpg images I try to upload as avatars. Other .jpg images are fine, while some return that error message. Can anyone shed some light on this?
Incorrect file extension?

I've had this problem before. Does it tell you the correct type of file that it is? When I had the problem the error was "This PNG file has the incorrect file extension" or something close to it. I had to open it in a photo editing program and save it as a JPEG file.
Yep, that's the one I'm getting.

Do you have Photoshop? I had to open the image in Photoshop and then save it as a JPEG. It should work fine after that.
It worked fine doing that in Paint, so problem solved, ta. 
In which case I'll close this thread
