uploading picture to the cova application

Question

For the last 2 days I have been trying to upload my picture to the COVA application.  But keep coming back with the same error message Your photo must be taken in front of a plain white or off-white background. Please choose a different photo.  I have tried multiple pictures and even used a white bed sheet as a background, but will get the same error message.   Is there a paper form application I can use, or can I do a walk-in appointment at the Chicago Embassy (since I live in Missouri) to apply for the China Tourist Visa?

The walk-in appointment is available but you still need to fill in the application form in advance. As for the photo, you may try PS to make it eligible.
