What the title says. I try to post to a topic, picture and text, and I get a 400 error code.

I used to get 400 errors when posting pictures. I eventually tracked it down to image size. If I shrank it to under 500Kb it went through every time. Sometimes a little larger would go through but every picture under that made it.

That might be it. I tried clearing the app cache, and it still wouldn't go through. I can obviously make posts. The image was the problem.

Some instances have a pretty low limit for picture sizes.

I only ever had an issue when I was trying to upload an image. Text only posts were just fine.
