ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Reiddragon 2020-10-15 16:06:27 UTC 
update on this: turns out the issue wasn't related to PNGs, but rather all my PNGs being >1MB and all my JPGs <1MB, which made it seem like PNGs were the problem. Still, not being able to use files over 1MB seems like a massive flaw that should really be fixed.
