What's Wrong?

API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"messages.0.content.4.image.source.base64.data: Image does not match the provided media type image/webp"},"request_id":"req_011CXATEKhfzTDhCEVXm6PbN"} I am using the Web version and not the terminal. It won’t let me upload any pictures, they are PNG and it was perfectly fine before.

What Should Happen?

I should be able to load jpg and png images.
