File Size Limits
Hi all.
Sorry if this has been answered before, but I'm having trouble searching for the answer. Is there a file size limit when it comes to posting pictures? I've been posting a lot of animated gifs lately, and I've been trying to keep the file sizes down to around 5 - 6MB or less, so that it's easier for them to load and uses up less server space. However, it does mean having to reduce the image size down a fair chunk, doing a fair bit of trimming or sometimes bringing the quality of the image way down, which I'd like to avoid if possible.
I'm just wondering if there's a consensus on what the upper limits of file size might be, so I have something to work to. I want to present everyone with the highest standards I can produce, but I don't want to be a server hog.
