(FIXED/SOLVED) I’ve been wasting at least over 30 mins just to try and rearrange/set myself a new PFP/Avatar on this site and it still refuses to accept it despite the image being 1000px by 1000px and less than 300KBS, I need a little bit of help, I’ve used/tried to use a editing site multiple times to rescale the images size as well as pixels and it hasn’t changed the error that pops up for me.
and now it keeps saying this and I have no idea what it means as it isn’t in the description or requirement for uploading avatars, is this a bug or do I need help?
These are screenshots providing/to sort of show the issue I am having…

This is the image I am trying to set as my pfp(hopefully this is the resized one):
I am going to try another method soon in a bit which I will update about on it working or not…but chances are it won’t likely work.(Unfortunately the alternative method DID NOT WORK & Derpibooru still gave me the same error that makes no sense.)

I think it’s too close to 300kb, I’ve used a lot of pfp’s and usually if I’m at 290kb or higher it won’t work. I can’t tell you why this happens but just try getting it down a bit more and then try again.

I dunno why it doesn’t state the unit, but it’s saying it has to be less than 300,000 bytes (which is 300KB [as hard drive marketing companies would define it] or 292.96KiB [as a computer would define it])
…. despite the image being 1000px by 1000px and less than 300KBS, I need a little bit of help, I’ve used/tried to use a editing site multiple times to rescale the images size as well as pixels and it hasn’t changed the error that pops up for me.

Well, when I save that file, it says it is 352,392 bytes, so it’s too big still.
Here are a couple of trivially compressed versions I saved using Photopea, a free browser-based image editor:
a PNG
a JPEG

Usually threads don’t need to be locked, they’ll just die out after it’s been solved. It’s set so only mods can lock due to that being yet another feature users would be able to abuse.

Your operating system likely reports sizes in kibibytes (KiB = 1024 bytes) but misrepresnts them as being in kilobytes (KB = 1000 bytes). Any file larger than 292 kibibytes is too large to be uploaded. I will attempt to make this limitation more clear in the software.
