HELP FAST! Formatting and flickr?

[Field]

I am going to lose my ****ING mind trying to upload photos to flickr. Every single one I edited in photoshop will no longer upload in tif or png format?????????????????????????????????

I don't get it. My scans always work as regular tiffs right from scanner. to my harddrive, to ubuntu, to flickr?????????????????

I am getting so ****ing angry at this....

Why not jpgs?

 

[Field]

The scanner automatically does .tiffs....

After opening in gimp and re-saving it works?!?

 

[Field]

GIMP did make it 8-bit, is the only difference.

 

[Field]

Is there a batch conversion method in photoshop? The scanner does not do well with changing from tiff to jpeg, it tacks on like another hour of time.

 

[Field]

Nevermind even gimp wouldn't do it.

Weird I found in the folder there are ._filenmae.tif and then regular tiffs? The regular tiffs work? But only when flickr opens the folder?
