What's going on with picture downloads?

I've been getting this message every time I try to post a picture yet I can post this screenshot?

I bet your photos are too big.

I'll try downsizing but I thought it used to say they were to big not security error?

They're saving a couple bucks by downsizing the number of error message types.

So what size do they have to be, I've tried 40% then I tried 2MB and got the same message?

Must be on your end. Just downloaded this pic for a test. It is for sale tho!

I think the limit is 5.2 mb.

Let me move this to the website suggestions form and hopefully Joey will chime in.

I figured it out, I cleaned up my browsing history, now 2MB loads.

Perfect.

Happens to me quite often with pictures that I take from my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. I reduce the size by 50% and they download no problem.
Ex. Picture size is 4032X3024, which is standard for my phone.
I resize the picture to 2016X1512.
Problem solved and it still loads a large photo.

Yes, I scrolled through some of the picture related complaints and everyone says "your pictures are to big" but nobody says what is to big.

I have asked Joey about this before in a PM and his reply was that my photos were too large.

That would be a handy error message for sure - "Photo size too big. Photo uploads limited to XX mb", something
like that.

I'll post this incase someone has sizing problems.. This is the app I'm using.

Click select photos.

Select desired photos.

Click resize, at the bottom in the middle of screen... not top.

Then select sizing, I've been using 2MB.

.

Then a new photo folder is created with your resized pictures, you have to make sure you pull the photos from this folder because the originals are left unmodified in their original folder.

I guess this just proves that size really does matter!
