I updated my character's portrait this morning and attempted to replace the one I already had with the updated version. It's a PNG that's 150x150 and only 160kb in size. The preview showed the image correctly, but when applied I got shown a Beholder image and the following error code: 21bc06ac408649dd9deb37e228b86f08
Edit: Tried it again after a "short rest" (giggle), and same thing... except quite a bit different error code:89bbb24169434e619d9dbab92d73c979
New Edit: The problem is that it will not allow PNG, but has no problem with JPG. The fact that the preview makes it appear that the PNG will work and then it throws an error that does not communicate the problem is the bug here.

PNGs never work for me. (I wonder if the OP is also on Safari for iOS.)

I tried Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge (cringe). Same thing. I'll try JPG here in a bit.
Sure enough... PNG causes the error, and JPG works just fine.
