c. If your files have been uploaded successfully, then a thumbnail image (or program icon) and the name of your file will populate.

Keep in mind that your upload time will depend on your internet speed and file size. Do not leave the page until after the upload is complete. If there was an error in the uploading process, there will be a pop up alerting you of the error.
