- Does anyone know why I can't have an image with more than 12.5 million pixels suddenly File:Aerial_house3.png when I have uploaded 35 million pixel images before without issue File:British Columbia Parliament Buildings - Pano - HDR.jpg? This makes it very hard to have the best possible image. Chillum 04:25, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
- That's the .png bug. DurovaCharge! 05:09, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
