I think it just randomly does that sometimes. Happened to me a couple of times.

Images must be less than 1.5MB. Resize or compress your image.

This happens to ChartBuddy too... Its images aren't that large.

Actually check images before complaining about the proxy... If the proxy says that it's an invalid image, then it just might be an invalid image.

Okay I understand what you are saying about resizing my image. BUT Considering how many pictures I have on here. THAT will be a pain in the ASS. Just a thought but couldn't you make it an option?

Consider how much of a pain it is to hit a thread on mobile that wants to load 1.5MB images, or multiple images this size. 20 images like that in a thread is more data to download than Windows 95 installation from CD. Allowing images that size is generous.

This image is 350kB, do you really need more?:

FTFY ;P

The proxy is supposed to follow redirects at least once. Is that a multiple-redirect?

One thing that messed me up once is right-clicking on a posted image and getting the proxy URL, which tries to proxy the proxy & breaks stuff.
Easier to show than explain:  I'll reight-click & save the (sloth?) pic, and get this: https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F9WbAL.gif&t=535&c=U9ut3HgxwLZ8uw,
which shows up as:
https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F9WbAL.gif&t=535&c=U9ut3HgxwLZ8uw

*Not a complaint, just a heads-up, etc., etc,
