Hello,
I consulted the paragraph regarding this issue but I can't compress my image to 2MB either in Paint or in another software. I can only manage to compress it to a maximum of 20KB? What should I do to compress a photo to 2MB?

Thank you in advance.

The forum is great...

    Whoa, I think you're getting off track.
    1) Compress = decrease
    2) Kb is CLEARLY smaller than Mb
    So I don't understand the question.

    OK, actually I want to insert an image on a site where the size of the photo must not exceed 2 MB, and my photo is smaller since it is about 50 KB, but when I try to insert it, it fails, so I don't understand...

      Not me either, but it's not a problem with the image size.

    Hello
    There is surely a problem somewhere because 50Ko is much, much lighter than 2Mo (2Mo = 20,000Ko, approximately)

    Hello,

    What is the extension of this image?

    .gif .jpeg .png other ????

    Maybe the extension of your image is not allowed on the site in question?

    I haven't solved the problem, there is probably an insertion error on the site. I've tried everything, including different photo formats, but nothing works!!! I'll try again tomorrow... and keep you updated!!!

    Thanks again
