Noticed json issues when uploading images recently. Anyone else experiencing similar issues?

I suggest using a separate service for uploading your images and then link to your upload using the URL field before posting. Catbox works really well. The reason for the error is more than likely because the image is too large for what the instance has set.

This also keeps resources free on the instance you’re using.

If someone wants to include the image in the body of the post or in a comment use this syntax:

![](direct link to the imgae)

Direct link is a link that ends with .png or whatever image extension.
