For some reason when i upload a screenshot to wowhead it says:
File size limit exceeded (> 3 MB).
And this only happens when i try to upload a photo on this item --->
Reins of the Jade Cloud Serpent
.
My Resolution is 1920x1200(Wide), i don't think this is the problem because all the photos that i have uploaded had the same resolution.

The size is 3.95 MB and i didn't crop it.
I'm using JPEG as the file format, the screenshot quality is 10, normal.

try making a new screenshot of it, if it normally doesnt give an issue.
and see if it works then (prehaps directly also make a few other screenshots too see if those are within accepted limit)
I took a screenshot on valley of the four winds, with the same mount, only thing that changed is the place that i took the screenshot and the graphics, i tried to upload the photo with the normal graphics that i use, but now that announce that always appeared >
File size limit exceeded (> 3 MB).
doesn't even appear. It leads me to nothing. just the database of the mount. Oh and i'm using chrome.

This happened to me the other day, I've forgotten exactly what the screenshot was of (unfortunately I had a clearout of my screenshots folder afterwards) but it was one or other of the vegetables in my farm.
Resolution: 1920*1080, same as the 250+ other screenshots I've successfully uploaded (I only crop it in the upload interface and it didn't get that far). Filesize was 2.1MB (I checked, wondering if I'd hit the 3MB limit, but it was well under), and I couldn't see anything I'd done wrong.
There was no error message, it just refreshed the page (removing the file info in the submit box), leaving me confused to say the least! Tried three times then gave up. I haven't tried any more uploads since so not sure if that was a one-off, but it sounds from the quote above that it wasn't just me.

Alright i tried to post a photo that had 434 KB of size, and it still didn't work, same thing that i said. It leads me to nothing. just the database of the mount.
I think wowhead has a bug now with all the screenshots that we try to upload because i try to upload any photo on any item and it doesn't lead me to submit, it leads me to nothing, just to the database of the item that I've tried to upload the screenshot.
EDIT
: I woke up this morning and tried uploading a photo of 434 KB of size and it worked. But when i try to upload a photo with more than 3 MB it doesn't work. And all the photos that i take will have more than 3 MB because of the graphics.
