'images cannot contain spaces' error

Recently, every picture that I have tried to upload onto a listing seems to come back with the same error above. I have to than list without a pic, and wait till some time later (ie. the next morning usually) and try to upload it as a revision. I haven't done anything different with my pics recently, same camera, software and computer, and I have never changed the names or directory they get loaded from. Does anyone have this problem too?

    That usually works for me, but last night I tried the same pic 8 times, moving locations etc and each time had the problem. It's annoying as sometimes I have to wait a day of auction time until it works, which means I guess I'm getting a day less of ppl considering to bid, as I know I never bid if a listing has no picture.

    I have had this too recently. I changed the size resolution of the picture to "800x600" i think and it went through fine. I have got image resizer. All my other photo's went through fine though - i havent got the name of the resizer to hand as i am at work but it is one i downloaded for free. If you need to know what it is called pm. me and i will forward it to you

    Edit to add: i use VSO Image Resizer http://www.vso-software.fr/
