Problems attaching images

[SYD]

Hello everyone,

We have some good news for you! We have increased the maximum attachment size from 1000 KB to 20,000 KB. This means you can now upload and share larger and higher quality photos on our forum. You can still attach up to 10 images per message, and we have also disabled the width and height limitations, so you don't have to worry about resizing your photos.

We look forward to seeing your amazing photos. Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback.

Excellent. I was finding all photos from my new iPhone 15 were being rejected without resizing.

Great news - but why did you wait until I had finished my TR and downsized hundreds of photos.

I'm still getting issues. Just "Oops! We ran into some problems." It's a 4MB photo; am I supposed to make them smaller before uploading?

Yep, I still can't upload a 3.1MB photo:

Maybe it's a Pixel/Android 14 thing? I'm using an 8 Pro myself. Pretty sure I could upload photos taken on my old Pixel 6 Pro as I used to upload photos to the Virgin Business Class meals thread semi-regularly. My attempt to upload my photo was done using Firefox and downloading the photo I took on my Pixel 8 Pro though.

I was uploading pics from my Pixel 5 for a long time with no issues, then in 2023 it stopped working.

I later upgraded to the Pixel 8 and the issue continued.

I haven't been able to directly upload 7 pro pictures either.
Any sort of edit and save fixes it.

Thank you all for the feedback and good to hear that some more members can now upload images again. The reason why uploading Google Pixel phone images still result in the error message is indeed not related to the size or format of the images, but to a Cloudflare rule to protect against "dangerous file" uploads. We are looking into this and will keep you updated on our progress.
Keep those examples coming, the more documented the easier it is for us to find solutions for everyone!

They're .jpg files though? Not like .heic or something. As mentioned by others, I was able to previously upload Pixel photos. The inability to upload started in I think the second half of the year

Test...yes this worked for me on Pixel 8 Pro... edit, arbitrary change, save

Is there a way to post small videos without linking out to a different website?
