Android picture issue?

[JCAP]

Hey all,
I haven't posted many cooks lately because I'm running into issues with the site and Android. When I try to post a picture I get the error message "the uploaded file is not an image as expected". Anyone else run into this? I can upload the pictures to other places, just not here. Thanks!

Nope and I use a samsung phone. I do get errors for pics on my pc but only to view them on my pc not to upload em here or view em here. Started a while ago after an update

I’m going to move this to the forum issues section.
Hopefully @bmudd14474 Brian can give you some help.

All good on my end, i use my phone all the time for my pictures ( Sony "android " )
No problem loading any at all to the site here . Even other pictures off the web than save to my
computer I can load on here , ie record album cover pictures weather pictures.

@JCAP what format are you saving your photos in?

I have uploaded multiple photos from my android phone in the last 24 hours with no issues.

"the uploaded file is not an image as expected".

Might just be a generic way of saying the file is to big , doesn't fit the format . Just a guess . Might be something to look at while you're waiting .

Hmm. thanks all. I'll look on more on my end and see what's what.

If the file is above 5mb it will error out. Let me know ow what file format as well

There have been a BUNCH of updates on various systems and equipment around my house this week.

Test pic for Android.

Appears to work.

Can you just highlight the picture on your phone and drag it over to the thread. That's what I do with my camera.

I take my pics with my Galaxy s20fe, and copy/paste here from my google photos acct. I edit them there first, if needed, like cropping and all that.

It's not the file size and it is a jpg. I actually can post if I take a screenshot of the original picture so something strange is going on. I'm gonna go on a deep dive tomorrow. But thanks everyone!
