File size limitations
 
dear victor!
 
i �ve been a member of your site for only two weeks now and i find your page extremely useful for my purposes.
i �m also uploading 3 worksheets every day.
 
now here �s my question:
 
for me it really is a pity that there are these filesize and upload limitations:
if there are people who want to upload more than 3 pages a day, why won �t you let them? i �ve got loads of worksheets which i want to share with the community, but they are bigger than 300K and i �ve tried hard to reduce the size, but sometimes it �s simply not possibe. it would take me so much time to do the resizing that it would be a waste of time for me.
in times of broadband internet it wouldn �t be much of a problem if the filesize was a megabyte, would it?
 
looking forward to hearing from you.
thanks anyway.

Hi...

We had a no limit of uploads before and people were abusing it... separating work that shouldn �t have been separated, putting the keys on separate sheets, 20 pages of one single flashcard instead of making a set with them...

It was getting to the point that there was way too much stuff to look at and a lot of very decent work was getting overlooked because of this. Now things are better... nobody NEEDS to upload 8 pages a day...

Regards,

Linda

Hello pikous,
 
I agree with you when it comes to file-size limitations.
I have some powerpoints I would love to share but reducing them to 500kb is just impossible... Disapprove I �ve tried doing it but, besides being time-consuming, the result is not good.
 
Greetings.

I totally agree with you Pikous! I have some worksheets full of images and it �s impossible to reduce them to 300 kb...
Of course, I think that having no limit of uploads would cause a mess, but maybe 1MB would be nice :)
