Hi GAD - photos I have previously been able to upload from my PC now say "file too large". Is there something we should be doing differently? I'm using the "Insert Image" button.

Just tried the "drag" you suggested, frono, still "too big".
This image is 1600x1067 and is 1.1MB (because it's more complex):

The photo in question is a few years old, and has not been modified in any way. But since the new software, I have not tried to upload THAT particular photo. This is perhaps a key point!
EDIT: Never mind. The photo is actually hosted on imgur.com, not stored by LTG. When you click on the photo LTG creates a slide show that might be local to LTG, but the big photo is still on imgur.com.
I'm using Apple mostly. Black seems to be the most consuming colour bitwise. ...
Nope, it's not operator error. Walrus is right - something has changed. I've run into the same problem this past week while using EXACTLY the same technique as before, trying to load photos from my computer (taken with the same camera and image size as before). I am not a tech person at all & hate messing with this stuff, so when GAD set it up to simplify sharing pics, it was the first time I'd ever posted pics anywhere. Believe me, I had the process locked in.
To test this, I just tried posting an image of my Starfire III that I've successfully posted two times before in different threads. It gave me the "file too large" message.
