Cannot upload large photo

Mitchell

I'm having trouble uploading a 20 x 24 photo to my account. The file is 11MB. The message I receive is "upload problem: > 48Mpix - photo too large "

I have tried two different uploaders with the same results. What does this mean and how do I work around this to upload and print such a large photo?

It's because the file is larger than 48 megapixels. That's file dimensions - pixels w by pixels h.

Holler if you need more help

I'm trying to order a 20x24 print of the following photo. The pixels are roughly 3000 x 2000. I hope the resolution will be good enough for a print that size. I tried an upsizing algorhythm in an effort to do some smoothing, but that's where I ran afoul of the smugmug size limitations.

Do not upres. It's not necessary.
