Posted 10 pics with a TR today. Four appeared with TR, six did not. Tried again. Error message: "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image. Please verify that the URL you entered is correct."
All ten images came from the same phone, downloaded to a folder on my PC and then edited, then dragged from PC to OH.org post, exactly as I always have. What could be different about the images that wont load?
Used a new phone today. I'm sure that's not a mere coincidence.

Re: pics wont post, size unknown
I tricked the board. Posted screenshots of each pic. That's a hassle though, and diminishes quality. Hoping somebody has an idea.

Re: pics wont post, size unknown
maybe resize them first to make smaller?
you're not supposed to have to do that though, I think they automatically get resized if they're too big. Maybe there's something wrong with that process.

I always resize, although I'm not even sure that's necessary anymore. All pics are below 1mb, as is my normal practice.

yeah, it's not supposed to be necessary to resize
Re: pics wont post, size unknown
Thanks for encouraging me, Jerry.
I just posted a couple huge balloon pics (not pics of huge balloons, as those would be huge-balloon pics, hyphenated).
Yep, they were automatically resized.
I should have been less timid about trying that earlier.
Note for people who are just half-way paying attention: Original problem not resolved, resizing discussion is auxiliary.

I just posted a picture of alien growth.
I resized it first.

I just tried to post a photo and got that error. I already downsized it and don't have a larger size any more. I usually save a version with the original resolution, but not always. I have always downsized my photos first as it used to reject large ones. I don't know when it was upgraded to downsize them itself.
