We have the max upload on the server set to 2mb, so that's why your file isn't going through.

Sorry maybe I should have mentioned I am trying to upload it to my Gallery.

It doesn't matter which gallery you're trying to upload it to if the filesize is larger than the PHP limit. You can still use the FTP upload options to upload larger files like that though.

Yea just got up with support I have a 2mb limit also. But yuo say I can upload from the ftp oprin and bypass this correct?

Yes. When you use the FTP upload options then it's only a matter of the script moving the file from one folder to another, so the PHP max upload limit does not affect that.

Great thanks Brian

is the 2mb upload standard for php or does it vary by host. (ie: how do we get that limit INCREASED)?

the goal: get it so users can upload files larger than 2mb.

It varies by hosts, generally you'd need to contact your host on how to change this.

I've seen it rage from 2mb to 64mb
