    Right now for 3 months or more photos uploading from your computer saved files is nonfunctional for everyone, no one can upload images from their saved files no matter what level.

    Another issue is that the level allowed to upload images was recently changed.

    •Only levels 3 and up can post multimedia content.

    You also have to be on a computer not Mobile.

    No one knows why for sure they stopped it or if it was even intentional.

    You can upload the image to Flickr, they will most times allow you to have the image be seen if above level 3, but under level 3 it will be just a non clickable link.
