Upload image

[Atom]

Can't upload images. Not sure why but every one gives me a "The uploaded file was not an image as expected."


Can't upload on threads, gallery, or my avatar. Some images do work but it is scarce to find one and to get my current avatar required running through three different copies of it from Google.


I'm quite sure I'm uploading images and not confused, the only thing I'm not sure about is whether this is on RPNs side or my device's.


Until I find out if it's this phone or not there's this thread so you guys can look into it.


NOTICE: This is a mobile issue. Please do not post that you have no issue if you're on a computer uploading images. Thanks.

While I try to figure out how to log into RpNation on my phone, I am going to ask you to do something super elementary and silly. Double check that the image was in fact something that should be expected (jpeg, png, etc). Then just hold tight.


 
Conclusion: Media has been saved using an Android phone. Let me know what happens after you do the silly, elementary thing I told you to do. =)

I too have a bug when uploading images, but only through the upload a file button. I can change my avatar and such. This bug happens on my mobile phone as well and the images are in fact the correct file format. When I try to upload a file or image I click on the image and the box registers it and shows it loading but then it just stops the loading option as if indicating the upload process complete but then no file attaches...I have no problem though on my laptop, only on my phone.

Can either of you provide a screen shot? I want to see if I can replicate the error.

While trying out this, I found out that the only files that the site won't load are images that I captured from my phone ;_; even though they are all jpg files...I am guessing there is no solution for this if it is on my phone's end. All other images that were either downloaded from sites or taken from an actual camera and copied over to my phone will upload but images taken by my camera on the phone don't upload...this is sooooo weird...

You should be able to do this. I was able to successfully upload an image taken directly from my phone. I would double check any settings that might be funky and make sure that the image size doesn't exceed 10 MB.

I'll probably have to dig deeper into the file systems of my phone and figure out what is up...all the sizes of the images I wish to upload aren't even 5MB and are all jpg files. *sigh* Or it might just be my phone...

Are people still having issues with this?

Yesh mrd but I don't think my issue is something to do with the site. It is my phone. I can't upload images taken by my phone.

I do think there's a possibility it's site side. Was just talking to Morde about how I couldn't upload an image here but I could on imgur which leads me to believe it's a possibility.

Hmmmm maybe

I am having the same problem, but only on my Android phone. Posting images does work, however, on Apple phones/devices.

I'm actually not sure. I'll keep working on it.
