Upload pictures?

[Butch Pytko]

I've never had trouble uploading pictures, till now. When I try to upload a picture, it says:

General Error
Image could not be uploaded
Debug Mode

I don't know if this is related to all the Virus Alerts I've getting lately, or not.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Max Dimensions: 2048x2048
Large pictures are automatically resized.
Pictures larger than 1600x1200 may fail.




I had no problem uploading this photo. But, the error message you received was from our server, not your computer. It probably means try again, or downsize the photo, then try again. Your camera or phone should offer different "resolutions." the smaller the resolution, the smaller the file size and less likely the upload is to fail.

I learned a long time ago to reduce the size of pictures to upload on the forum. The picture I'm trying to upload had been reduced down to 801 X 991. I can reduce way smaller than that, if necessary. I've tried several times to upload the picture. It's way smaller than the max size that's accepted.

See if you can PM it to me.

Just for informational purposes, I reduced the picture to 750 X 928, and it uploaded. But, I've always uploaded pictures much larger, but below the max accepted size, and never had a problem. I guess when you see that error--Debug Mode--window, just keep reducing until it takes.

Exactly what I suggested. When a file server throws an error in a module like the uploader, it creates a debug.log file that the administrator can open and (try to) read. I didn't need to see the file to deduce that it was related to the file being uploaded. It didn't like the flavor at first!
