4mb is pretty big, the forum software will compress it right down. Try resizing it and then uploading and let me know how that goes.

Resize down to 70%

I've only just started to get problems, worked fine all last year

Worked fine when resized

Even tried a file of 2.6mb and still failed

Nothing has changed with the site, no updates etc. I am trying to get a feel for how many people are having the problem.

Just use stoner picture resizer a great free piece of software that works well.
It will take them to KB in size but will keep the quality. :thumb:

Is it being timed out due to slow phone /signal transfer rate? This is something that can vary with time and place?
This doesn't last forever, so do it while you can.

Brockett..... no, I don't think it's a signal strength issue - I was using the PC at the time, wired to the router: seemed to me that I'd just given the forum software too much to deal with all at once. I've no problems with single large pics, from PC or phone.
(And it's so much easier than having to upload to separate hosting sites first, create a link, and post it on the forum   :) ).
