Make sure the name of the wallpaper has only alpha-numeric characters (a-z, 0-9) in it...

Try uploading as a compressed bitmap. I was having the same prob the other day. Then I compressed the file and it worked. Go figure.

hmm...ive already done that. I dont understand the problem but...for "bitmap" name, does it have to be the exact name? or will that be the name displayed on the site?

you can name the bitmap file anything you want. ex. nameoffile.bmp, The screenshot needs to be named something else. nameoffile2.jpeg. You can name the wall whatever you want when uploading. That is what people will see.
