i have twice tried to upload a .dream and keep getting this error message -
asking me to include skin in my upload - i have uploaded a preview image, .dream and a .swf preview so is there another problem i am not aware of?

You can try https://www.wincustomize.com/upload.aspx as well.
Since this one doesn't have the progress indicator like the other does, you'll have to use your browser progress bar to gauge your upload.

this has happened to me before too , had to re-do the dream file -
had to make a NEW .dream file - then it uploaded ....
if that fails then i re-made the mpeg2 video then re-did the dream file and that worked ...
sometimes the files just get corrupted, i don't know why and you have to re-do them ....
all in a days work of a " Dream Maker " ... lol

another note:
when uploading the order should be >> jpeg swf .dream
you should see the .dream file by the half way point
if ya don't and it still shows swf file , then there's a good
the dream skins not loading and you'll get the error mess. you got..
so just keep this in mind when uploading and watch for the .dream file
to show if it does then your upload should be good .....

one last thing - these are all things that happened to me when trying to upload a dream
if your using win7 to do your dream now , like me
i do a duel boot on my pc with vista and win7 ..
a couple of dreams i made in win7 didn't take and i had to
re-make them in vista - then the upload took
just info for you , of things that have happened to me ..
knowing you are using the sony program to make your dreams ,
you might have to update it to the lastest HD version ... just thinking out loud here ....
sony allows an upgrade for a cheaper price ..
this is all i can help with - if this all fails then sorry i coundn't help ya ... Az

I know this is OT but as long as you’re talking about dreams maybe I could get some advice?
I’m new to them and am having some problems. At first I could not get one to work but kept trying and did an uninstall and reinstall, they work great. I verified that Deskscapes was installed correctly and it is.
My problem is; when I visit my mail which is Outlook or this forum or any site it seems to freeze the dream plus when I hit the x to leave the frame disappears but the page remains. I right click and hit refresh then I right click and have to hit pause dream (which is already frozen) then right click again and hit resume dream.
Any ideas where I’m going wrong? Thanks.
