[Mediawiki-l] uploading big png files

[Frederich, Eric P2173]

I am trying to upload a big png file.  It is about 1.15 Mb.
My firefox browser keeps on saying something about an unresponsive
script.  I keep choosing "continue" and nothing happens.
When I go into the wiki directory on the web server I see the file made
it into the images/temp directory several times.
I ran an md5 on the original image and the one that made it into the
temp directory and they are the same.

Any ideas on how I can solve this?

If I have to convert it to save space is it save to just delete the
files in the temp directory?
