Does anyone know why I can't load a picture to a thread discussion? Everytime it says "failed to upload file" and I'm kinda gettin sick of it now. Adding pictures and stuff makes replies much better and I feel like I'm stuck in the stone ages. Anyone else have this issue cos right now it feels like it's just me. Any help would be appreciated :)

    I tried to upload a picture a pic from snapchat but it failed to upload, so I changed its location in my phone and it worked.

    I can upload some photos from my phone but not others. This is new in the last week or so.

    Maybe your photo is too high in pixels, use a size reducing app and then upload.

    Someone on here suggested trying to crop the pic a bit. For some reason, that seemed to do the trick.

    I am not the most technical person lol but maybe I should have a look at those apps they sound handy. Thanks.

    I use one called Reduce Photo size - free app and simple to use.

    You can still post if you have the photo web address and use the web browser option or manually do it.
    [img]WebSite_Image_Address[/img]


    For Example: 
    [img]http://cdn-static.denofgeek.com/sites/denofgeek/files/styles/main_wide/public/star-wars-new-trilogy-rian-johnson.jpg?itok=zdfNe0BM[/img]


    Would look like this:

    I’ve been having the same issue for the past week. Sometimes if I re-crop the photo MFP let’s me upload. But it doesn’t always work.
