Can’t seem to load pictures

[Jay knowles]

I have been taking pics on my phone the same way as always, if I try to add any to a thread or start one using the I button as normal it said my images are to big. Any ideas how to fix i don’t think I’m doing anything different or changed any settings. Thanks Jay

Hi Jay - unfortunately the underlying software technology (PHP) has a 3mb maximum on the picture file size.

You need to find a way to resize them before uploading.

I thought if you hit the icon to the right of the normal button, it will resize the picture for you.

Is that to the right of the I button. Never had to do this before which is the bit I don't understand Jay

Hit the icon with the green ball and see if that corrects the problem

Hitting the icon with the green dot is what I’ve always used with my phone. Just said file to big with whatever I do. Jay

I end up having to compress images with a compressor before upload, which is why I slowed adding Brambe pictures. I didnt used to have to, but now I have to compress every image.

All seems strange. Got to be honest I have no idea how to compress a picture taken on my phone. Jay

Jay.. just download a photo resizer app.. I have to use one on here as well. A little aggravating but..

[centrop67]

I am truly sorry everyone. I'll see if I can find a plugin that will resize at upload time.

[ladyjubilee]

Its definitely something that has changed as I didn't used to have to compress.

Just wondering if the posting picture issue has been sorted yet. Thanks Jay
