Ok so now that you have that info. I want to be able to take a large file 900 by 900 with a size of 45MB < just an example. and have the system auto configure it to go to a maximum of 600 by 600 with a small kb size. Not concerned what the kb is just that the system does it automatically.

Right now all that the system does is tell me the file is too large and shuts me down. I know that it is in the settings but I damn sure cant find the stupid thing.

Thanks

45mb you want to upload a file that large. well its not so much settings in photopost but more php settings on the server. example php max filesize is 2mb normally

You have a link to a phpinfo file on your server so we can see your php setup.

here is the link Chuck

phpinfo()

45mb was a huge exaggeration. I was just trying to use an example. I guess a better example would be a file that is 2 or 3 mb.... and i want to be able to upload it and having the system compress it down to something is the low kb's... not sure if it is possible I just dont want a lot of peeps loading large **** and blowing up my site...heheheh

Thanks for all your help Chuck. I appreciate it.

well you should be able to upload a 2 or 3 mb file based on your php settings although your setting here is a little weak depending on your connection

max_execution_time 30

That should be 0

What happens when you try a 3mb file?

I tried uploading a file of 3.21 jpeg...

I get an error

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 13824 bytes) in /home/deathdlr/public_html/gallery/image-inc.php on line 116

This should help then
