Me myself yesterday when trying to upload photos of 5Mb size. I had finally to reduce them to be able to upload. It seems there's a new limit in size.
Another colleagues seem to be able to upload photos 2.5Mb sized, so maybe the limit is somewhere between 2.5 and 5.5
Interesting. I was able to upload these ads before with no problem.
Newspapers.com just saves the images In a large format and I’ve tried to play around with the images so I wouldn’t keep getting this error. 🫤

That’s going to be the theme of the holiday ads I will post! “Join our Christmas Club!” “hurry!” “order Now!” “avoid disappointment and future regret!” “Don’t be disappointed like Last year when we ran out of stock!”
