I’ve tried posting photos the way I have always successfully done, and they don’t show up. i notice other’s seem to be having the same difficulty.

I just attempted to post items today (for the first time) and had an issue. I believe that I solved it by reducing the resolution of the picture with an image editing program. I used the export feature in the Mac Photos app to export to a size of "large" rather thanl full-size. I had tried to reduce the actual size of the files themselves, but that didn't work, it was a reduction of the resolution of the images that worked for me.

Might be a file size limit. Perhaps one of the moderators could shed some light on this?

I’ve occasionally had issues, but not often. I usually post from my iPhone so the resizing is done in the background and hidden from me.

I use the same photo size reduction website for every picture i post here. It's always worked until yesterday. A lot of other posters seem to have ended up with their photos not appearing today too.
