The error, normally, means the file you tried to upload is too large and beyond the restrictions noted for accepted files. The system will attempt to make some adjustments to files slightly over, but ones considerably over will result in a failed message.

In short, you will need to crop and/or resize the image before trying again. If you need help, post the full image and I'll fix it.
