Why is Fluther telling me the new pic I want to upload for my avatar is too big?

Asked by Dutchess_III (47069points) October 9th, 2013

I get a message says it’s too big, keep it under 2mb. The pic I’m trying to upload is 1.5mb.

Too big may also refer to dimensions.

Can you shrink it down before uploading it? Poor fluther’s server will thank you.

But it’s the same size as all my other pics. But I’ll see….

You’re smarter about this stuff than me but I have found that if I upload it to Facebook and then making a copy from Facebook onto my phone, it somehow is smaller and works.

All kinds of back door things work! I’ll try it!

Hey @Judi! It worked! Good thinking! :)

Ok, I’m just going to throw this out there, but maybe the new pic is offensive to the fluthersphere. It can be overly sens….......nevermind, I see it worked.

Ok, like the new pic and hardly offensive at all.

But…it’s a WHITE person @rojo! I figured someone here would take offense. That’s why I posted it. I shall be so disappointed if they don’t.

And there’s a pink hat too! What? Do you have something against OTHER colors? Sheesh!

No no….it’s quite obvious I was gender stereo-typing, which is obvious proof I have a problem with gays.

Also, the fact that it’s on the right way around is an obvious statement about the contempt I have for the gangsta wannabes who wear their ball caps backward. The gangsta there is her brother.

I love you guys! :)

Apparently it’s Fluther’s way of telling you, “Yes, those jeans do make you look fat.”

Not that I would ever say such a thing.

Dang. Someone beat me to it.

Buying new jeans today for to go see a discrimination lawyer with because you made me cry!

You do liposuction @Rarebear?

rojo's avatar

So, I’m confused? Is the question really “Does this avatar make my butt look big?”

Dutchess_III's avatar

Well, it wasn’t originally, but it is now and I have a complex because of it @rojo.
