    Bit of HELP required in image sizing for showing on here

    For many many years, when I've wanted to upload an image I've used the "copy image address" from my phase photo and plonked it into the dialogue box on any post I've made on TZ.
    Now, I'm faced with an "image too big" box thus I'm unable to post images.

    Nothing about my MO this end has changed so I'm assuming the board software has.

    Can anybody help me out here please ?

    TIA

    You don't say how you access TZ. No change for me with Imgur when pasting photo links into TZ using Safari or Firefox. P.S. No idea what a phase photo is, you're ahead of me there... [So, I'm of no help ...]

    That should have read "pbase".
    The image store website pbase.com, sorry (auto correct)

    If you are trying to paste a link to your image, unclick this box to avoid the error:
    Retrieve remote file and reference locally

    I think it's new. I've posted thousands of internet photos here with no problem before this ocurred a couple weeks ago.

    Only started happening to me very recently as well.
    Saw that box and unticked it just to see what happened! Result. ;-)
