This morning I tried to upload a JPG image to the forum and wasn’t able to. When I went to add the attachment (2.7 MB) to my post I got a box saying my image size was 0.00 B. I tried several different formats (JPG, PNG, PDF) all with the same result. Yes, I am logged in.
Anyone else unable to post an image file?

This is 2.9m, took a looooong time to upload
...and it failed.
Your file is probably to large. High resolution files take a long time to upload. Try to keep the size of your image not to exceed 1200 dpi by 1800 dpi. You probably have a photo editing software on your computer. That is where you can change the size of your photos. Another problem could be your internet speed. Check with your internet carrier and tell them the problem. They may be able to help.
Thanks for the response Leonard.
As stated in my post, the file is 2.7 MB which is under the 3.0 MB limit. My internet speed 650 BPS download and 24 upload. I've been posting images here for many years and never had an issue until 2 days ago.
Here is an image. I think it will upload.
Which one are you?

Seems to be resolved.
I just re-tried to upload my image that wouldn't go when I made the original post, and again, it didn't work. I was finally able to upload it after I re-saved the JPG with a higher compression setting.
The attached file shows the result of attempting to upload the 2.3 MB image.
Here is a neat trick of your image file is too large for uploading onto this site.
I just start a conversation with myself in Whatsapp and send myself the pic i want to upload.
Whatsapp will automatically make it smaller. After sending to myself, i download it and then i can usually upload to this site.
