Treehouse TeacherWhat size image are you trying to load? It's from the web, I assume? Here's one potential list of answers from StackOverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/a/14877627/475217

Treehouse TeacherI think you need to resize the image even further for certain devices. Each device has a size limit for images that can be viewed in an ImageView. In FileHelper.java, try a smaller size for this variable:
public static final int SHORT_SIDE_TARGET = 1280;
Maybe start testing at 1024?

14,335 PointsI just use my camera to Take Picture from the Dialog. My camera take 8mpixels photos so i guess that's the problem but i guess Picasso can't manage that.

Treehouse TeacherAre you downsizing the image at all? Are you using the helper files like in this video? http://teamtreehouse.com/library/build-a-selfdestructing-message-android-app/sending-messages/adding-a-file-to-the-message-part-2 That should reduce images to manageable sizes.
Also, you can check the size of the file directly from Parse. One way is to go to the Data Browser, click on a file in a message and view it in the browser. You can visually see how big it is and also download it to your computer to get the size in MB.

5,308 PointsI have this problem, too. I resized the image with resizer and helper in the manner of the video. And in fact, I downloaded the image from Parse and the size was around 1MB.
