Hi, I'm guessing this is because wget is sending the Content-Type as "text/ plain" instead of "image/jpeg" since your post file is a .txt and not a .jpeg or .jpg. You could either use --header to send the header yourself or you might also want to look into curl which is a little better for doing things like this on the linux commandline.
