Limiting Attachment Size

[creamedgeezer]

I need to clear up some space for the server move. So I will be putting an attachment filesize limit of 300kb, and deleting the current attachments bigger than this. I hope this doesnt inconvienience anyone, but the uploads folder is 3,641 megs and I need to clean it up.

Thanks!

Awww shucks...some of the .png files I attached early on are over 1MB. I understand though, you gotta do what ya gotta do. I just hope all of the recent ones in .jpg are revived.

On a side note, I have every image that I posted here saved on my computer...so if need be, I could convert .png to .jpg to bring them well under 1MB.

So what\'s the final size limit going to be? I\'d like to know before doing any more caps.

Thanks for your hard work...I definitely appreciate it.
