Bandwidth Limit Exceeded. My Suggestions.

The image itself is actually not stored in the blockchain. It's just the html text that's saved there. So the image size plays no role. But I do agree that it would be nice to see how much bandwidth is used when.

    Thanks for that clarification, going to update my post to reflect that.

      No problem! The Steem Bluepaper describes pretty comprehensively what's up with the bandwidth:

      Bandwidth Rate Limiting for Fee-less Operations
      Because the witnesses are paid entirely through the generation of new tokens, there is no need
      to charge users a fee for powering the blockchain. The only reason to charge a fee would be
      as a deterrent to prevent users from completing an unreasonable amount of transactions, which
      could potentially impact the performance of the blockchain.
      In order to place reasonable limits on the system use, each user is given a limited bandwidth.
      Whenever users perform blockchain operations such as token transfers, posting content, and
      voting, it uses up a portion of their bandwidth. If a user exceeds their bandwidth allowance, they
      must wait to perform additional actions until their bandwidth recharges.
      Bandwidth limits adjust based on network use, so users have a higher bandwidth allowance
      when the network usage is low. The amount of bandwidth that an account is allowed is directly
      proportional to the amount of Steem Power a user has, so users can always increase their
      bandwidth allowance by getting additional Steem Power.
