# HTTP Error – Image won't upload

 * I’ve tried several times to upload a photo (image) to my blog post, but either
   the pic is too blurry (like it’s not high quality enough – although I had it 
   at 300 dpi, a 4″ X 6″ photo), or (when I made it bigger, in my Paint Shop Pro
   program, then tried to upload again), it wouldn’t upload it. It said:
 * HTTP error.
 * Help? Is there a size limit for images?

 * You could be running out of memory when the system tries to build the thumbnails.
   If you look in wp-content/uploads/…. is the file there? If so, do you see the
   various thumbnail sizes for it?

 * Thank you, Sterndata. It finally worked. I think I’m having internet connection
   issues. My blog is fairly new, and there are only about 10 images even in my 
   uploads so far, so likely not a memory issue. Anyhow, I finally got it to upload(
   without changing the size), so hopefully moving forward now. I DO sincerely appreciate
   your help!
