Having problems uploading photos

[jocat]

I'm trying to post the next day of my trip report, uploading photos directly via the Easy Image Upload.

The first couple of days have worked fine, but I am having problems today with the Dibb freezing and being unresponsive, eventually crashing when I'm uploading certain photos. I'm wondering if there's a maximum file size for photos, as this is the first day that there's a mix of photos taken on different devices. The previous days just involved photos taken on my phone, but this day I'm trying to post has some camera photos too, which probably have a higher quality resolution.

There is no limit. It is dependant on your internet connection though. If your upload speed is a bit low it might time out before it finishes uploading.

Go to speedtest and see what your upload speed is.

Thanks for your quick reply SMAX.

Have just done that and the upload speed is quite a bit slower than the download one. I'm not sure if this is normal for us though, or if there's a problem in the area today.

That upload speed is good and certainly fast enough.

Try a different browser. It could also be something like anti-virus slowing down the upload too.

I have just tried a 5.7mb image and it uploaded in about 4 seconds.

Thanks. That's a similar sized image as the one it kept freezing on.

Will try Chrome then, as I was using IE.
