Problems adding icons and banners to communities (lemm.ee)

I'm building a refugee community for a subreddit (or two) I used to moderate, and I'm trying to add an icon and I keep getting the error message "SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data". I couldn't find any documentation about the expected size of icons and banners, so I don't know where to start.

Thanks!

Looks like icons are 600x600, based on what everyone elses icon was. Didn't find it in the docs, but cutting my image down worked wonders. Thanks!

Hey! The main limit at the moment is actually that all uploaded images should be smaller than 100kb. I assume that by resizing, you also cut down on the file size, and that is what solved the issue. Glad you got it working!
