YouTube Profile Upload Picture Does Not Work

(* Feb 5th: this issue appears to be resolved as of Feb 2 *)

YouTube gives mention on its users' homepage to new features, among them, the ability to upload a Photo to the profile page.

However, the system does not accept any images. Regardless of which file you input, you will receive the message: "File not provided for upload image operation."

Here are screen shots step by step:

Google Earth major diff from Google Maps Satellite

In Google Earth, the very fine desktop program from Google, your mouse's third button/wheel works this way re. view: zoom out = wheel forward; zoom in = wheel back.

In Google Local / Maps (I believe the service uses both names interchangeably), the mouse's third button/wheel works this way: zoom out = wheel backwards; zoom in = wheel forward.

I prefer the Map technique. It is natural.

A new version of Google Earth was recently released. They should have adjusted it so that the mouse wheel works the same as in Google Maps / Local.
