  Hey there,

  What is the URL for the website in question? How large are the image files that you are attempting to upload?

  There is a maximum file size for upload of 1GB. For more information about image uploaded please review the following documentation: https://en.support.wordpress.com/images/

  Hope this helps,

  Cheers

  Hi again,

  Heres a link to some documentation on image optimization: https://en.support.wordpress.com/media/image-optimization/.

  You should be able to compress your image files to an appropriate level without losing much in the way of quality.

  For future reference though, this site (sewrightrepairs.com) is actually a self-hosted WordPress.org site rather than WordPress.com.

  This forum is designed to help clients hosted by WordPress.com. For more information on the difference between the two please check out this link: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org.

  If you are in need of any future support for your self-hosted website you may be able to find an answer on the WordPress.org support page at the link provided: https://wordpress.org/support/ or as an alternative you may want to contact your hosting provider.

  Hopefully this helps!

  Cheers
