Afternoon!

I seem to be having probs uploading photos from my phone. Says the image is too big for the server to provess but I am not doing anything different to what i normally do.

Phone has been switched off and on. Cashe cleared.

Android phone on chrome browser. Also tried google just in case.

I dont use the app so please don't suggest I use that ;)

Any other ideas?
 
Had same problem on the Pc yesterday ended up having to use a photo editor and resize them to lower the file size. Have you tried lowering the image quality a bit to make the file size smaller.

I cropped the pic.

How would i change the quality?

I just dont understand why things changed yesterday as I dont tamper with my gear!
 
Depending on your phone in the camera settings there should be an option to reduce quality. I wondered if someone had changed your settings to hq which would make the files too big. [emoji5]
 
If you are on android the Google play Store has an easy image resizer that will do the job.

That worked thank you!

Missed spamming photos the last two days :D

Will just alter my phone camera and see what i can get away with. Kinda goes against the grain to lower image quality as I wouldnt do that with my DSLR :D

Not yet!

Set to VGA (other two settings were HD) can upload if i use the selfi lens but not the other lens on the back of the phone.

Argh 1st world problems......
 
I try to keep images below 300Kb for uploads here.
If you are on Android your Gallery should have a built in option to resize to suit. 2 to 3 Mb is too large for a mobile upload in terms of bandwidth.
