Really weird image upload bug (2 Viewers)

[shmmeee]

Been happening for a while and I just put it down to my phone but if I make an image in DALL-E in ChatGPT and try and upload it here it uploads as an empty image I can’t insert. If I copy and paste it it pastes then disappears. If I screenshot it and try and post the screenshot same thing.

This is on iOS Safari. Not a huge issue as it’s always some stupid joke I’m doing but curious if there’s a reason for it.

Weird, does it work with normal images? Are they jpg or other formats?

Yeah works fine with any other screenshot which is what’s really twisting my melon. They’re PNGs. The screenshots are all jpeg tho. See screenshot attached. First is the ChatGPT image downloaded. Second is a random screenshot. Third is a screenshot of the GPT image.

Can you try with a normal png?

From the wiki PNG article:

I’m used to webps from Google Images not working. And just get around it by screenshotting the page. This only happens with images made in ChatGPT it’s so strange.

Chatgpt looks like it gives me webp rather than png ?

I’m in the app which might change it. Funnily enough I can screenshot it when I’ve got the share menu open.

I’m leaning towards it being some weird ChatGPT app DRM or something which makes no sense but I really can’t understand why I can screenshot everything but that. As I say more of a technical curiosity than an actual problem.

It doesnt look as if Webp works yet but will see if there's an update that might fix it

Only sort of related but just had the can’t upload thing with a gif. I dropped the frame rate and then it posted. Is there any documentation of what is and isn’t accepted?

It was probably the size.

It was probably the size.

What’s the max? This was about 1.3mb originally I think.
