Uploading photos

[Hobo Mikey]

I just tried to upload three photos, one uploaded and the other two came up with this symbol below. Any idea what went wrong. It has happened before and other times I can upload photos fine.

I’ve seen and heard of this happening before. The moderators of this forum are probably having a good laugh at our expense. They might say things like; Wrong format, too big a file, you reached your limit, your pictures aren’t worthy …blah blah blah. They’re messing with us.

Anyways, try again from scratch. jpeg. Works for me.

Are they too large ie pixel size a x b?
Maybe try resizing them and try again?

I agree with @Jackware. I use "Image Resizer" (Google it). You can take any size pic and reduce it down to almost nothing. I used it to create my signature photograph, which are not many pixels at all.

I think the site has an upload file size limit of about 5mb. Now your phone has so many megapixels, the files are bigger and bigger.

I’m on an iPhone and made a “shortcut” to resize my photos. I click on the photo, and choose “resize photos”. It asks me how many horizontal pixels I want, and generally I find 2500 gives a decent image, but it comes in under 5mb and always uploads.

Here’s how to do it, if anyone is interested! The first and only time I’ve ever used the “shortcut” app!
