Forem: Issue Uploading a Cover Image on Safari

[michael-tharrington]

A user reported having troubles uploading their cover image in Safari:

"Hey hey team!

Just wanted to reach out cause I think I found an issue with image uploading for Safari.

I was trying to upload a cover image for my post https://dev.to/michael/silencing-the-lizard-brain-4leg but every time I hit done, nothing would show up.

Finally thought to look the console window and saw this on Safari..."

@michaellee i think this might have been because the file size was too large. I just downloaded the exact file and the same thing happened to me, but when I uploaded it as a smaller file it worked fine. We should have better error messaging there.

@jessleenyc I guess the PR - #2018 - I sent for #936 should catch this as well 🥳😂

Thanks for the feedback @jessleenyc @rhymes @michael-tharrington! I resized and it worked. Would be great to have even just a little blurb to indicate the max for the image.
