Posting pictures issues with site

Post by dodgerammit »

I am using the attachment link below the body window for posting. I have resized my file twice. Down to 437 mb, but after attempting to upload, I get this BS error about file being too large and needs to be smaller than 768mib. WTH? What gives?

It should be saying smaller than 768KB. If you right click your photo and hit properties, how large does it say it is? (PS: If you are on a mac, right click and hit get info).

I just tested it real quick, and over 768 is too large, under is fine.

Hm. What browser are you running? That way I can try and replicate it on one of my Linux boxes. Although mine are Ubuntu, looks like you are running KDE?

Anybody figured this out yet? There are several pictures I could post that are WAAAAYYY under the maximum file size, but I'm still getting this error. Getting frustrated that I'm having to shrink all of them to half size or less just to post. Hence, most I'm not posting at all.
