Otto Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I have a topo I'm trying to upload which is 50,619 Kb in size. The error is "failed to load". Is there a size limitation? If so, I can try to find a way, in Photoshop, to reduce the size (I"m already doing "flatten image" of course). Thank you for any advice!

JasonG Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Good question.....I don't know @Otto. But I bet @olyclimber or @jon does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Otto, I don't see a restriction in the backend for image size. Can you try a different browser? I may have you email it to me so I can try and see it too if that doesn't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 Just tried with FireFox (after first try with Chrome) getting same result, "There was a problem uploading your file". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonNelson Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 If you have the free imaging software "ImageJ", you can reduce the size using the Image-->Adjust-->Size feature. It should be possible in Inkscape as well, which is also free. This software is nice for drawing and has some similarities to Photoshop (which I don't have). Jon  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 I am using IrfanView to reduce the size, with its Resize/Resample feature. However, even though the resulting file sizes go very low, they will not upload. Maybe there is something wrong with the way I saved it out from Photoshop; I'll try something some other options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olyclimber Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I just used the "Preview" app on my Mac to set the image to 50% of what it was....that seemed to be a good size and the system took it so I guess that is the solution. I did adjust the system so it would take an image the size of the original you sent me and it still didn't work.....DANG COMPUTERS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Posted August 1, 2021 Author Share Posted August 1, 2021 It looks great now, thank you! I'll take another look at my system, do some tests. thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
