Bug fix: validating images before attempting an upload

For those who have experienced this particular bug while attempting to upload an image, where you get a very quick 'snackbar' which appears with a triangle ! icon and no supporting text telling you that the image has failed and no information on how to fix the error on the image upload. You will now get a clear image validation message of what is required of you to successfully upload an image.
