What's Going On ?

Post by bigpete » 17 Apr 2018, 4:44 am

What's going on with adding photos ? Has something been changed recently ? I've tried to write a story and add photos from my phone a couple of different times in the last week and whenever I go to add the photo it tells me its an invalid document,even though I'm taking them from the same place I have been since I first joined the forum. Anyone else have the same problem or any idea what's going on ?

As they say, size matters. Check the image size. You may have change the camera settings on the phone.

Good chance you have changed from low quality to a high quality setting. I think about 500kb is the biggest you can up load

I can't imagine trying to write a "story" on the bloody phone, takes me twenty minutes to send a text :-)
I stepped into the future a couple weeks ago, retiring my Nokia N95 8Gb for a Samsung S8+ Edge.
The camera is stunning, but the files are huge, over 6Mb if there's a lot going on. I just open them in "Edit" and resize them to 40% to be able to upload them here due to the 2Mb limit.
