Podcast verification error message

Hi all!

I am trying to upload my podcast from Podbean. I'm getting this error "Podcast artwork must be between 1400 x 1400 and 3000 x 3000 pixels, JPG or PNG, in RGB color space, and hosted on a server that allows HTTP head requests."

I have created the image to be 1500x1500 and 798 KB, as it should also be smaller than 1MB.

Somehow it still doesn't match the requirements and I don't know what the problem is.

The URL is https://feed.podbean.com/radioscorito/feed.xml

Thank you for your time and effort!

Thank you for your quick response!

I have changed the image accordingly: https://feed.podbean.com/radioscorito/feed.xml.

However, clicking the 'publish' button leads to the same error and

'Refreshing' my last update is not possible as I exceeded the maximum amounts of refresh apparently.

With the changes made in the picture, it should work when I can refresh again you think?

Kind regards

There are two problems. You have an alpha channel: you need to flatten it. And your file size is 725kB: it must be less than 500 kB. Changing to a JPG would solve the first, and would go towards reducing the file size. There's no particular point in in using PNG.
