    they were each about 2.5 mb. i've tried to upload them several times, but always get this result -

    The following error occurred
    There was a problem uploading your file.

    any suggestions?

    Where were you trying to upload them to? The photo gallery?

    I just was able to upload a photo through it. What browser and operating system are you using?

    I created an album and tested uploading some files this morning, interestingly 3 files keep failing in the same manor pcake described. Everything else uploaded just fine.
    They are the ones with Hospitalfield in the title.

    Ok correction, after several tries the 4mb file uploaded, the other two which are 8 & 9mb and close to the 10mb limit do not. The error is a security error.

    apparently the pics were too large - not in file size but in area. sorry about that :(

    they were 4000 pixels on the large side, and i tried and tried to upload them with no luck. when i shrunk them to 2000 pixels on the large side, all three uploaded the first time. go figure!

    All the ones I uploaded were identical 3504x2336 and only the two largest were giving issues. But still under the cap size. I don't think the resolution was the issue.

    i tried to upload the larger pics more than 10x with 100% failure. i tried to upload the smaller pics once each with 100% success.

    in fact, i just went and tried to upload the larger pics 5 more times, and every time i got the same error. maybe the cap is exactly 4000 pixels.
