…cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Mon, May 28th 2007

If you’re trying to view an image in Firefox and are seeing this error cannot be displayed, because it contains errors”, it’s very likely you’re experiencing the same problem I just solved. I post the solution here because none of the other folks I found reporting the problem posted the correct solution. Firefox (and probably Internet Explorer) cannot display CYMK images… oddly, Safari can (so many of us Mac users won’t have this problem).

To fix this, download the file, open it in a respectable graphic program (eg. Graphic Converter) and change modes from CYMK to RGB. Save the file, upload and you should be home free.
