It was fine earlier this morning when I updated my siggy image, but now I want to post a few jpeg images to a thread I can't.

These are .jpg images as I normally upload without issue. Cookies and that have been cleared. Chrome's cache has been cleared. As you can see above png images are fine, jpg are no-go.

If I convert photos to png even a 50kB photo is too big. That's not much larger than a thumbnail. What is going on???

It´s working for me so I´ll tag @Super Administrator s for you.

Have you tried logging out, closing everything down and coming back?

Are they images you downloaded? Sometimes I know I download images and they show up like that even for Photoshop

I've done everything Zara, including clearing cookies, clearing cache, restarted the phone, installed and tried Firefox, threw the phone at the wall.
I have managed to upload a couple of pngs by reducing the quality a lot.
I now have to take the photo, crop it, reduce the quality, convert to png then upload, it's not worth it.
Something has changed this morning.

As the message said. Something went wrong. Try again later. Later means later. Give it a few hours and try again.

jpg JPG are not working for me. I'm getting the 'The uploaded file does not have an allowed extension' warning when a few hours ago my jpgs were accepted.

Is this another one of them strange mysteries? Yet again something is fixed the British way, with a cup of tea.

What is the max size for an uploaded image? Mine are being rejected as being too large @ 5376 x 3752.

@SandraK That one is a jpeg 17MP, 5.6MB, 5504x3096 which has been automatically resized by the forum software to 1000x563, so it appears there's no limit to the pixels, maybe a file size limit?

I find it's just so much easier to just use imgur to upload images and link to the images in my post. I suppose it's just a habit from the days on forums when you couldn't direct upload.

My files are huge straight out of my dslr and I can upload them. Are you using the upload file or clicking on the little pic and upload that way?

Thank you! I'd been trying to use the Attach Files having been well trained before the update. It worked for me when I used the pic logo without the headache of having to resize. Woot! Now I can go and post pix of ParrotStars. :cheer: :cheer:
