Thanks Lien, I am trying to get this done using c#.NET and I think I am getting closer. What is happening with my request is it is getting truncated only a few characters in to the actual image data so I don't have a footer boundary. The post completes successfully, but the image that gets uploaded to the server isn't formatted correctly.
Here is the full request body - POST /account/update_profile_image.xml HTTP/1.1 Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=125e2d3d-97d3-44fc-8267-9a8ef2d79644 Authorization: Basic <removed> Host: twitter.com Content-Length: 201010 Expect: 100-continue --125e2d3d-97d3-44fc-8267-9a8ef2d79644 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="image"; filename="seantest.jpg" Content-Type: image/jpeg ÿØÿà Any ideas what could be causing the image data to be truncated?
