Aside from the good suggestions, there might be something going on with your wiki. Should not have problems loading larger images. We had some students loading 3 to 4.7 megabyte files recently, with no problems, and thumbnails are fine. See Image Gallery at left in http://nutmeg.conncoll.edu/SATA-Peru-2007/ We also upload .mov files up to 50 mb.

From: "Itay Ophir" itay@worldwideworkshop.org Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Is there a way to limit the size of images uploaded
I noticed that when users upload large images (over 300K) the wiki has problems creating the thumbnails for them and sometimes I even get error messages.
So, my question is - is there a way to limit the size of Only images that user upload?? Maybe using a filter for the file extension (gif,jpeg..)
