Evening all.

I'm having trouble uploading photos to my gallery for the purposes of selling items on the Offers and Wanted forum.

When I select a file to upload from my photo library (iOS 10.2 on iPhone 6s Plus) the uploadfile.asp page loads but only displays the text "uploading... No files uploaded"

I'd happily include a screenshot but... y'know...

I've tried deleting existing pics from my gallery, thinking (not really but...) that it might have reached capacity but no joy.

Can anyone please advise?

TIA!

Are you using Safari? It probably doesn't support the upload - tried Chrome?

I only get that if the file is too big.

Yes it is via safari but I've used it successfully heaps of times prior with no issues. I'll download the chrome app and try that. Don't want to do it from my laptop as it's easier to access the pics on my phone photo roll directly rather than emailing the pics or using the iCloud interface on my lappy.

Have never had it happen before and nothing's different in terms of photo resolution so dunno why it suddenly doesn't work.

Ditto. I use this http://picresize.com/batch.php to resize them. hit tools and select single file if you only want to do one at a time

My photos range in size even at the same resolution. From 1.5MB to 7MB, depending on what the photo is of.

Nailed it. Tried this and it worked fine after resizing. Thanks a mil!

Still not sure why my pics are suddenly too large but at least I know a work around!
