Problem Posting Images

Hey all-

Just wondering if anyone else has had issues with inserting images into posts recently?

I used to do it fairly easily by going to the button and choosing the From Device option. Lately it seems like almost every time I try I get some type of an error. Not really sure why. I’ve also tried the Take Photo option and it doesn’t work either.

Using an iPhone 11 which is the same I’ve been using for a couple years, and it was working earlier in the year.

What's the error message? If it gets to 50% loading and then stops, the image is usually too large.

Ah, that might just be it.

Once in a while though if I copy an image from another site to my device and try to upload it I get this.

Use webp to jpg online converter (there's many free online) then upload on dvdtalk.
