Your images may only be up to 800 pixels wide.

I’ve been getting this error message for the last 45 minutes when trying to add a photo from imgur “Your images may only be up to 800 pixels wide.” I saw some YouTube videos and tried all the things they were saying but no luck. Anyone have any info? I tried using the BBCode which is what the tutorials on YouTube said to use but still error?

Just a little more info, I’m on an iPhone at the moment and will be at home later on my Macbook if I need a full computer.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I never have luck posting from Imgur. I always move the photo into flickr first and that seems to work.

The forum is set up with image max dimensions of 800x800. If you want to add a bigger one, you need to resize it. There are online tools that will do this. As far as I know, you can't specify a size with bbcode like you can with html.

I usually use TinyPic to upload images, and it also has many resize options to choose from.

I could never figure out how to do this on my iphone, but on the windows laptop I just use paint.
