2MB is just not enough!
 
Hi,
Does anyone else have problems with the 2MB limit? I have a few presentations which I wanted to upload, however I cannot get them under the limit!
I am working an a Mac so they are in Keynote, but I can save a version as a .ppt. So, I started with a 14.5MB file. I tried to delete some of the pictures and slides to create a smaller �sample � file for upload, as I �ve successfully done this before. In the sample I put a link to an alternative download site that had a larger file limit.
However, I got down to a title slide, and one slide of text, with 2 pictures and no animations, and my file was still too big. 
How am I supposed to upload anything over one slide in the 2MB limit? Is this problem because I �m not working in Powerpoint, and am therefore saving a converted file? What �s going on?
I �d like to share my work for others to use, but it just doesn �t seem possible on such a puny size limit! 
Suggestions please?

I agree with what you �ve said. I have the same problem.I think that �s why most of the ppt files uploaded here are not complete, attractive and informative enough!I think the admin should do sth about it, pleeeease

We �ve talked about this over and over again and I agree 2MB is just not enough for PPTs!  I have successfully uploaded several because I always compress the pictures in the programme itself (POWERPOINT) and it doesn �t affect them at all, but some have just been too heavy and I �ve had to upload them on other sites accepting a larger file limit.

It would be nice if Victor could do something about it?
