Re: AW: Problem to connect to gift server

Normally gift only analyses files with extensions known to be images. 
All extensions are mentioned in the gift-add-collection perl script. 
Make sure that the extensions are all lower case and not upper case as 
they might not be recognized. You can also add an extension to the 
script if you have extensions not mentioned there.

Cheers, Henning
