Answered Can't Post An Image

I made an image to post. I uploaded it to catbox, but poal said the link was expired (it isn't, I just made and checked it). So I tried uploading the image directly. It said it was not in an acceptable format, but it's a .jpg. I renamed the image in case the punctuation in the auto-generated name was throwing it off, but got the same error. Then I made a smaller version of the image with the improved name in case it was timing out or something. Still the error.

Given that catbox and pic8 both accepted it, I wouldn't think it's corrupted. I'm not sure how doing it from the pic8 site vs from the poal page.

I just tried pasting from clipboard, it didn't work for me. I tried the original image and it said it was too large, so I tried the smaller image and I got that same "image file invalid" error. To do this test, I copied the image from where it's already hosted on pic8.

Given that ...pic8....accepted it,

Oh I thought it wasn't working even when uploading on pic8

I'm not sure how doing it from the pic8 site vs from the poal page.

Then it might be a pic8 API issue.

---> pic8 is being gay again!
