Icons Collage Error
Icons Collage has not been working properly for most people lately. We know that after you click ‘Generate’, you sometimes get a black box with no icons. We are not fully aware what causes this, so we need your help in order to fix this problem.
If Icons Collage does not work for you, please tell us what you did exactly.
- Did you use 3×3 or…?
- How many animated icons did you use? Please be specific (if you give us the direct link of the icon that would be AWESOME)
- Did you upload any of your own icons? If yes, how many of them were animated? Were the images below 1mb?
- Which browser did you use? (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.)
- Which Operating System do you have? (e.g. Windows XP)
If you all could simply answer these 5 questions, we can get the problem fixed as soon as possible!

I used it successfully for 3×3 and 4×1 but 4×2 it kept telling me the final image was to big for the server. All of the icons were my own and 4 of them were animated. if it is something that i did wrong i apologize. I just didn’t understand why it gives the option for that many icons but won’t generate the collage. thanx.

I used a 5×5 collage, no icons were animated. I uploaded all of my own images, which were just pictures. I use internet explorer and windows xp. I tried to paste the collage as my background, and it just leaves a black background.

Same thing here, though I could load any size, 3 x 3 or 5×5 and would always still get a black box. Frustrating!

Hey guys we think that the problem has been solved. Moreover, we think that the problem is IE6 and IE7.
PLEASE USE FIREFOX! IT’S MUCH BETTER THAN INTERNET EXPLORER. PLEASE!

I used the 3×3 and uploaded my own images…when i was done and clicked generate it said there was an error and the screen went black.

I tried this three different times.
First time: I used a 5×5 on Internet Explorer using Vista. I was able to put the icons in, I had no animations…but when generating it said that it was too large for the server to store.
Second Time: I used 4×5 on the same setup. It said the same thing.
Third time: I did a 4×4 on the same set up, I had 4 animated icons. When generating it said there were too many animations, so I removed one of them. It generated fine. I went to paste it in MySpace, but it never showed up after saving it there…it was like I didn’t do it at all.
I used wackospace icons only.
I hope this gets back to working!

I have tried to generate an icon collage several times. I can upload fine but when I click on generate, it just stays on that page trying to generate and does nothing.Tried both versions. It also shows an error on page when you pull up the icon collage page. IE and windows XP
