"Uploaded file is too large" ?

[patchyjoon]

For the past 2(ish) days I've been unable to post photos... even photos that I was able to post before I keep getting the message that the uploaded file is too large. I've tried using different image formats to compress them, but no dice. I couldn't find what the max file size is. Currently my images range from 100 KB - 8 MB.

A few questions/things to try:

Where are you trying to upload? The signature area for example will have a harsher limit than other places.

Sometimes it is less about the kb/mb, and more about pixels.

If you screenshot the image and then upload it, do you get the same error?

Are you experiencing the issue on mobile or desktop? Which operating system and browser? Have you tried a different device and/or browser?

Have you tried to clear cookies?

Hm, okay it looks like I can post photos under other threads, I just can't post photos under Keeping up with Patches? I will investigate further and let you know.

If you haven't cleared your browser cache yet, that would be my next step. Sometimes things in there get screwy and can cause issues!
