I'm struggling with this as well.
I have gone into my user settings and set the kb limit to 2000. Users can still upload larger than that, and the system gives no warning.. it even says "photo successfully uploaded" and brings them back to a screen that shows everything but the new photo uploaded.
I even set this to 2 to test, and it still doesn't block the image size. Just to be sure I set this for all usergroups and still no error message.
Whats confusing for the users is that, due to the php limit, Photopost goes on about its business as if things were a success. There should be a better way to say "sorry, your image was too big - try shrink it first, and here is how you can shrink it bla bla bla". As is users with digital cameras increasingly have larger and larger photos and they are frustrated with the gallery... then they turn to other hosting methods that better compensate for this issue. End result is we're not getting photos placed in our gallery.
