trying to connect podcast to itunes. Keep 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.

Image specs are correct, so it must be the wp server? Not sure what to do…

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Here are the instructions for connecting your podcast to iTunes: https://en.support.wordpress.com/audio/podcasting/

I haven’t heard of this “HTTP head requests” requirement before, so I’ve tagged this for Staff input.

Yeah, I’m familiar with that page . . . I am following the instructions very carefully. Nonetheless, the error persists . . .

@unclegib can you double check the image specified in the media settings? I noticed it has a w=450 on the end, making it too small. Try just this: https://notesfromtheuncannyvalley.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/notes_small.jpg
