Message too long error

[jfarris]

I tried to post a photo in "Spotted," a medium size iphone photo along with an 8 word sentence.
I got a "message too long" error message.
So, I shortened the title and chose a "small" photo.
Same error message.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

What's the filesize (bytes) of the photo?

I get the same message sometimes with iphone photos they tend to be oversized.

Mezy - how do you figure out the byte size of an iphone photo?

I have an iPhone and I download a photo to a photo program on my computer, such as Paint, there are many others and a message can be included to whoever you are sending it to, separately or on the photo.

File sizes were 61 and 19 KB.

What's the filesize (bytes) of the photo?

if you look at a photo on the iphone, thumb up from the bottom it give a lot of info about the photo including file size
normaly in the 1.9 mb region.

JFarris - you might want to PM Basil, so he can do some troubleshooting for you. If the two photos that weren't accepted by BCF were 61 and 19 Kb, there must have been another problem.
