Apologize for the double post, but it was important to resolve this issue.
I have already discovered the mystery of this question that arose with this image!
As you know, TalkImg eliminates metadata (Exif data) from images. This means that new images have to be created when they enter the system. So, this can cause some images (especially those that have already been compressed before in some software) to have a different size, as we are creating a new image, which could eliminate some compression elements.
As an immediate solution, TalkImg could stop automatically editing/deleting Exif data. What do you think?
Either way, I will try to resolve this issue at a programming level, but it may take a little longer.
EDIT:
As an informative note. I disabled the Exif removal function and uploaded the image in question. The result was that it maintained the image size. When I reactivated this function, the result was that the image was almost double the size.

It really doesn't make sense, sometimes the way the image was originally compressed can cause this type of problem.
Does that mean you're changing the encoding of images by default? I'd say you shouldn't do anything to the image, unless the user requests for a compression change.In theory there is always a "create ", especially because the system eliminates all metadata from the images. To do this he has to "create" a new image. What shouldn't happen was increasing the size of the image. There may be some byte differences but nothing significant.
That's why I find this case strange.

The image is 1403233 bytes. Somehow the upload to you server doubles it. Can you check if it's exactly double the size? Something weird is happening during upload.Yes, this is another point that I will have to investigate, it was something that should not be happening.

I've sent it, the format is zip file in Wetransfer link, I think it's better to not make a copy since I don't need it anymore.

This is already being resolved at the script level, but it could still take a few months to be implemented.
I can try asking @theymos to adjust the image proxy to 3MB, which would even give more freedom.
It doesn't hurt to try.
I could upload it to TalkImg without problems. It shows Upload complete with a green tick box. But when I try to post the image, it doesn't work:
That was exactly what I want to say.I can upload it and it's completed, but the image doesn't work since the size turn become 2.8MB, the forum didn't allow such big size.

Yes, unfortunately I forgot which one I used. I've sent by PM.
Since the contest thread has been locked, so I guess it's fine for me to use alternative hosting image.
But you can use my image to improve your site, maybe someone might face a same problem like me in the future.
I already try to use your image compress, but the result is same.

Thank you for the file. I will analyze it carefully.

You can put the link here or send it by PM.

The original size of my image is 1.33 MB in my PC, but when I successfully uploaded into your hosting image, the size went up to 2.8 MB, not sure why this can happen. So I can't attach my image since it's show as an error (IIRC the forum only allow 2.5 MB).
Strange. This type of situation had never occurred to me.

EDIT: Alternatively try using https://zip.talkimg.com to see the result.

Hello joker_josue,
The original size of my image is 1.33 MB in my PC, but when I successfully uploaded into your hosting image, the size went up to 2.8 MB, not sure why this can happen. So I can't attach my image since it's show as an error (IIRC the forum only allow 2.5 MB).
I could compress my image to make the size lower, but I don't want to do it since it will make the resolution or quality decreased.
I use other hosting image and it's working fine, so I hope you could find a solution for this one.

Talkimg merchandising is too niche OpSec risk.
I could never wear a Talkimg Shirt, let's say. It's more indicative than a fancy Bitcoin shirt, almost anyone could wear that. Wearing a Talkimg shirt would be an indication of sure hit for someone looking for a bitcoiner.
I agree, but what about, let’s say, a mug that you keep at home and no one else will see? I would love to make one or those for one of my projects if it ever became big enough (for me to completely live from it, for exemple). Talkimg merchandising is too niche OpSec risk.

I was thinking about more personal items: mug, mouse pad, USB stick, and things like that. And I even thought about Icarus Card.
But if you want @fillippone I can get you some bottles of Portuguese wine. Are you interested? You know that we have some great quality things here.
I don't know if this is a problem but I ran into this situation today when extracting the picture link from the first TalkImg.
I think it might be due to server problem or network problem.

This usually happens when using a more specific VPN or Tor browser.

Even if someone is a social phobe, someone of neighbors or couriers can see through the open door, through the window, etc. Yeap, I'm a bit paranoid. But on the other hand you can always say that you bought it on a flea market and don't know what does it mean.

I would like to take this opportunity to ask the following:
I'm thinking about putting some TalkImg merchandising items on sale. Would you be interested in this idea?
