Twitter seems to have their own timeout, which may be hit with large images and slow connections. Nothing we can make to not fail, but should tell the user that the upload failed and why, so that the user can reduce the image size and retry.

Max image size is 3MB. Images are scaled to max 2048x1024 -- We could in theory scale larger images before sending.

For right now, the user should just use smaller images (on slow networks uploading large ones makes no fun anyway).
