Default Now I can't post pictures

In the past, I have put ads on TOTV (up to a month ago), but now I can't get the pictures to load in the ad. I press the +, choose the picture I want, but it does not load in the ad.

I must have messed up some setting or something. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?


I just tried again and the message came up: Upload URL might be wrong or doesn't exist.

I can't believe I am giving tech advice. Try this;

Clear/delete some of your old pictures stored here and see if it will work.

I have had the same issue with Edge and Firefox. Make sure you are using Internet Explorer NOT edge. If you are on Windows 10 (I think you are) - I can get you to IE very easily (and make it your default).

If you are on Windows 10 - in the "Search" field (next to the start button) type "Internet" (as you can see in the image) Internet Explorer and Edge will show in the list. Pick "Internet Explorer", with that you should be able to upload your images as you did in the past. You also, probably will be prompted to make IE your default, choose yes.

Check the size of the picture. There is a limit to the size of the file that can be uploaded.

I've had that same message when trying to post a few items for sale a few weeks ago. I waited until later and tried again and there was no problem.

You are correct, I have had this happen a couple of times, and this site in its infinite wisdom, does not tell you the photo file is too large. I had to reset my camera to the smallest file size and retake the photo, then it worked fine.
