Looks like image resize is not working well

I’ve had the same issue in the past when uploading very large images. When it comes to crunching the image it fails and shows HTTP ERROR in red. However other images continue to load. It wasnt file size where it would fail but rather the pixel width and height of the images.

By default PHP settings, the most GD libary can handle per image is 1,000,000 pixels which is 1024px*1024px

Did you know: 8,000 pixels times 8,000 pixels times four bytes for truecolor equals a walloping 256 megabytes. Now I know no shared hosting webhost that allows you a PHP memory limit of 256MB

The only solution I was able to find, of which I’m offering to you, is to reduce the size of the images beging uploaded. Alternativly convince your webhost to up PHP memory limit, which is unlikely.
