I tried to upload an image and wondered why I didn't work. So I tried again and again until I noticed that my images were barely larger than 2 megabytes.

Can you please add a warning if images are too large to upload (or at least throw some kind of error) or make the initial information in the upload context field more visible?

The way it works now, the website just tells me it's constantly trying to upload without throwing an error (see screenshot below).
