Default Attaching images in thread problems

Yes I've read the sticky about web hosting images. My question is, I'm trying to attach images from my saved photos(iPad). It keeps coming back as "upload failed". Is this because it is coming from Mac base or is it a website problem? Thanks.

The error is a general error but it's usually due to the image is larger in file size than what's allowed. Note the restrictions in the Attachment manager. In general, pictures about half 1MB is what's allowed. If you go over what's allowed, the upload will fail. Modern cameras will easily exceed those restrictions. You'll need to resize them, reduce the camera's resolution, or use an external host.

Thanks for the imput. I wouldn't doubt that's the problem, too much res in the newer phone style cameras. I will try to find a way to shrink the res and try again.
