Please try to describe your process and the problems more in detail.
Sometimes people post huge images and they load slow for me. They may be images that are linked to a URL.
The page is wide as a tractor trailer until they load and then they show a page correct size when completely downloaded in the threads.
I can't stand that as I have satellite internet.
The bad thing about it is once it's posted, it's always posted. So visiting a favorite thread to keep up with, opens to page one and there it goes again ...
Uploading images is not all that difficult if it is a jpg. png won't load here.
I almost always resize my images in my photoscape program, save them on my desktop and upload from there but there is an optimizer and instructions on how to add images to posts.
I think this link might help, but I don't need it since I don't have problems. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/tutorials.asp
I try to keep my images in the 100kb range give or take but 300kb is the limit for something to upload in a thread..

That image you posted is 63kb as I saved it on my desktop to study it.
It really isn't a great image since there is a lot of dead space and the subjects are blurry and small.
The image size is great tho. If you cropped parts of the image off, you could have even smaller size uploads with bigger images of what you want to show. Here's your biggest coin of the 5 I worked on.
It's only 19kb

I'm guessing I have Microsoft edge, but I don't know for certain?


If your computer is windows 10 then you likely have edge. Edge does not work and you will need to download something like Firefox. (that's what I'm currently using with windows 10)

Whenever I go to crop or downsize the picture, nothing more happens? I used to get pop up that stated successful. The pictures I'm posting are downloads off my phone, that didn't need reducing.

I get all the way to the green arrow, but nothing after that.

In the past, whenever I'd reduce/crop, my new images were stored in downloads, but nothing is downloading there?

Edge is a nightmare. I've tried everything to get rid of edge without success.

Just do not use it. Install Chrome or Firefox and set to default. Ignore Edge. It does not exist.

This has been right at the top of the optimizer almost since it was installed....

Microsoft Edge will not work at all. Microsoft does not know how to make a browser, still.

Can someone explain to me why some of my pictures will load, while others will not? Is this a bug in Microsoft edge?

Microsoft, Edge, and most of their products are loaded with bugs. Microsoft is constantly releasing updates and patches to all their products. Get an Apple.

As said above, Edge is buggy. It is best to just completely avoid it, at least when visiting CCF.
