I am trying to add a picture for a gear item I've submitted to the catalog
(QXI3749) but get the EM "1. Parameter error".

Anyone who could clarify for me what this means exactly and what I need to change
to upload the pic successfully?

It also seems I'm not able to add a pic of the original box for this item
as I'm obliged to add a "sequential nr" to the item nr but gear doesn't
have that and when I leave it to "1" the system doesn't recognize the item
and leaving it blank is not possible.

It's been a long time since I've added stuff to the catalog, but I don't
remember it being this hard ...

Nevermind, figured it out myself; seems I had to choose a color ("not applicable"
is a "color" apparently).

Too logic to present an error message stating "you need to choose a color"? What
planet are IT-technicians from?

The parameter is the color. "Not Applicable" is the default color for most items.

The same planet that you are from: decoding error messages that don't make
sense.
