Hi, new to the group. Trying to post a Cybertruck picture in a new tread and as my avatar. It is a .jpg file but I keep getting an error message saying it is not an image as expected. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, truckdude

Perhaps it's encapsulated as a webp? Or a type of jpg2?

Try converting it https://www.google.com/search?q=convert+to+jpg and/or shrinking it https://tinypng.com/

You can always do the trick of taking a screenshot of it, too. That'll also convert it.

It is just a .jpg from my phone. Maybe it is too large.

Finally got it to work, had to make the image pretty small. I wish the error message said file too large instead of this is not an image.
