I am having problems with the UPDATE section of the API.
I have been trying to update both colors and images for a number of
accounts.
I have been using both Net:Twitter and plain good ol' curl.

I am unable to get any updates done via Net:Twitter. With curl I can
do the color updates ONLY if the account has been initialized once by
me going to the twitter website and manually changing one of the
settings.
Is this a security feature or something weird? Since I have to update
a significant number of accounts I hope to be able to effect the
changes programmatically.

I am completely unable to upload images using curl as in:

curl -u Username:PWD -F "image=backgrnd_img.png"
http://twitter.com/account/update_profile_background_image.xml

I get the following error: 417 Expectation Failed
<p>The client sent<pre>
   Expect: 100-continue
</pre>
but we only allow the 100-continue expectation.</p>

Am I missing something?


TIA.
