  Hi. After 200 blogs w/ images, it won’t upload more images. It says, “To big”. Yet, they’re the same size as all the others. Do I have to buy space? Thanks JK/Chicago. :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  How much space do you have left in your media library? You may well have to buy more space if you haven’t been resizing them and optimizing them for the web.

  Thanks raincoaster. I’ll check into it. I’m not a techy, so I don’t know much about sizing, as well, how to size in general. If I have to but, I’ll buy. :)

  Unless your theme uses Featured Images, just register an account at Flickr and upload there, then embed via URL in your blog.

  I have the same problem this evening. I was not aware of a max size, if there is one?

  My media size now is 207 mb. Is that over the limit?

  No, you have 3gb of space. How big is the file you’re trying to upload?

  It is 155 kb. When I try to upload an image the blue lines stops at a certain point, and I get the error message “HTTP error”.

  I do exactly the same thing as I have over the last three years so kind of struggling to see what is wrong on my side.
