I got a 1mb+ image to post in /b/. If you can recreate it let me know because I can not fix it if I can't make it happen.

It happens every time I try to post a specific image on /b/. I can email you the image if you want.

just upload it to some sort of file host and post the link

after looking at it I think you may get the same answer as in >>626
I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same issue/picture. If I have the picture though I may be able to finally resolve it.

Different image, that one was 2.5mb. Here is a link to the image

Just FYI, the resolution is 3000 x 1944

OK, I have located the problem and it does have something to do with the dimension. The code that was written uses a php function called imagecreatetruecolor. This function uses the maximum of memory allowed in our php.ini file. I could up it if I so desired but I am not really a fan of upping the memory usage and having our server hog up resources only to allow images to post. The memory is set to 32MB right now and I assume that would be enough for most images. I will look a little for, and if you find any, more efficient similart functions in PHP I would be willing to try them out and see if it fixes some of the problems but really it is sort of sounding like a limitation with the language/alloted memory usage.

>I had a similar problem myself. THe issue here is the function imagecreatetruecolor(); it uses alot of memory, and is not all that efficient. when editing a large image, the memory it uses is several orders of magnitude larger than the image itself for some reason.
