Photo Too Large for Form Upload
Form uploads often reject camera photos because the file is larger than needed. Compressing or resizing the photo in the browser is usually the fastest fix.
Quick answer
To fix a photo that is too large for a form upload, open the Compress Image tool, upload the photo, create a smaller version, and try again. If the form still rejects it, resize the photo to smaller dimensions. The work runs locally in your browser, and Confiles does not upload or store your file.
