Loupe Troop error-Request entity too large?

[manderz]

I'm trying to list a bunch of items on loupe troop,and keep getting the error 413 Request Entity Too Large. I'm assuming that means my pictures are too big? Any thoughts? I'd love to be able to finally sell some stuff, but between yucky WNY weather not allowing a decent photo session, a busy schedule, and now error messages, it's been a bit of a challenge

Its probably a photo size thing. Resize the ppi if you can. I find that revising it from 300 down to 120 usually does it. I'm assuming its a jpg file?

Yup, all jpg's. I'll resize and try again.

Thanks so much for posting about this -- I had the same problem and wasn't sure where to look for help.

It would be great if you did figure it out if you could come back and share with others what the tricks to your success were.

I had this problem, here's how I fixed it:

Did my write up and saved the listing with one photo. Then I reopened my listing and added one photo at a time, I saved after each. By doing this I didn't even have to resize the photos.

I still haven't fixed anything. I tried resizing my pictures, making sure the size was small, as well as the DPI. I couldn't even get a listing to save with just one picture. I can't currently list on DB or LT. Kinda frustrating! So, I listed on ebay instead, and didn't even bother posting here about it.

In case anyone's interested....

Niel - this is exactly what I do every time too, lol. I've been doing it for months and never knew why it was like this - but maybe 6-12 mos ago I started having this issue and this was my solution too.
