Problem Attaching Files
Sep 10, 2020 01:54:54 #
I'm having a horrible time attaching files and I can't figure it out. They're not too big because I resized them. It will accept one that's 301KB, but won't accept two more, 325KB and 353KB respectively. It says something like "Non-image attachment", but shows nothing so I remove it. This is very frustrating.

Are they JPGs ?
Yes. At the moment, I'd prefer not messing with RAW.

sorry - I meant saved as JPG rather than any other picture file format (BNP etc)

No, they were saved as JPEGs, just resized so they could attach easily.

When I attach a JPG I don't resize - the UH process does, I think, resize as necessary. This means that if you tick download you get a bigger file. Worth a try?

Maximum size for UHH is 20MB. I tried downloading one of them before I resized it and it was 4.65MB. Now you'd think that would get swept up by UHH real quick, but the little circle on the UHH tab on Windows just kept going round and round and wouldn't download it. This has happened to me numerous times and I've learned to resize them even at a small MB size as that one. I haven't had a problem before, but tonight I couldn't get anything to stick, so to say.

Your problems probably is thru you internet provider. Even here in Metro ATL between 4 & 7 pm I do not try to do much thru Xfinity. With Covid-19 their servers just get overloaded with traffic. That said, my iPad can switch to Verizon which I do do and it works just fine. It cost more, but the advantage is worth it to me.
Another thought; If not already, try hard wiring to your modem. Wifi and hard wire are on different band widths (here). If your working on WiFi you should try it. Back to my original thought, there are so many working with tablets/laptops it just overloads the bandwidth.

I am on Verizon. LOL. But I'm also on a laptop, doing this wirelessly. I finally got it posted, but it wouldn't show the first photo. And it said that it was a Non-Image Attachment.

That makes two of us.

Here is your "non-image attachment." I believe it has something to do with your color space; you may have two sources and UHH can't decide what type of file it is
Here's what Admin told me a couple of years ago: If a JPG file has multiple profiles, then the forum software doesn't try to guess which profile to use to create a thumbnail and simply keeps the original file.
All I did was open your file in befunky.com and re-save. That app always produces sRGB.

When you click "store original," the download link enables us to view the file in the size it was uploaded. I don't know how many people view UHH photos on ultra-large and high-res displays, though. Anything over 2500 pixels wide is probably wasted here unless you want folks to zoom way in for feedback on noise or details. If you can't elicit a viewer's reaction with 2500 pixels, well...🤔)
Note that the limit in megabytes is 20 (though I've squeezed in 22 on occasion), regardless of file type and whether store original is selected.

sRGB is most user friendly for many applications.
For the gull shot, Jeffrey's viewer says "WARNING: No color-space metadata and no embedded color profile: Windows and Mac web browsers treat colors randomly."

To wrap up the questions/observations: any time the system doesn't recognize the file as photo (tif, png, jpg), a download link is generated but no thumbnail is seen. If you click the download of your first gull pic in your earlier topic, it will show up as an image on the new screen.... It says something like "Non-image attachment", but shows nothing so I remove it.
Almost any file type can be attached (maybe not .exe), so it makes sense that if UHH doesn't know it's a jpg, it's not going to display a thumbnail. A pdf, Excel or Word doc, even a PS action can be attached.
