A really dumb problem...

I feel so stupid for having a problem with the easy part...
http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i4/mzsparky/oekakiproblems.jpg
This is what I have problems with... (don't ask why those are blurry, I really have no clue)
The database hostname is no problem for me...
Neither is the password..
But the Database username and name are just... harassing me.
It keeps leading me back to the same page over and over again, which makes it obvious that something is wrong...
Can someone tell me if I'm typing my name in wrong?
My name for my username and name are the same (ninjasunited100)
As is the name for my database...
I named the file I uploaded for the oekaki "oekaki files"
I'm on funpic for my host...
So can someone tell what I'm doing/did wrong?
Or do you need anymore info than that?

Re: A really dumb problem...

I think Funpic tacks an extra digit to the end of your username when creating the db username (ninjasunited1001 or ninjasunited100_1 or something like that).  Or, maybe it was the database name?  Check the database info carefully to make sure there isn't an extra number somewhere.

Also, it's highly recommended that you don't use spaces in file/folder names.  I forget what the common problems are, but it usually revolves around some web browsers not being able to display images properly and stuff like that.  It can be unpredictable.  You can use an underscore in place of a space, but some people might find that hard to see in a link or the web browser's address bar.

Also also, JPEG tends to trash bright, highly saturated colors, because there is little to no luminance (black & white) data to define sharp edges.  Very colorful images need a higher JEPG quality setting than dull images.  wink
