    I was going to post some wide field views of Virgo cluster galaxies and noticed the 1000 pix limit. Not worth the while to shrink already small targets this much. Is this shrinkage really necessary in the day and age of megabytes?

    Thanks for the feedback I can look into it later when I get back at a computer, on my phone at the moment. What resolution were you looking to upload at? The believe the decision was made based on a preliminary calculation on what ammount of storage per member we could realistically allocate at the time.

    The 2 megabyte size is very ample for images up to 3000x3000 pixels. Just having the ability to scroll the image might be a problem. My stuff at 2700x2200 pixels is all less than 1 megabyte.

    Sorry @sdbodin for the delay I just increased the limit to 3000x3000 as you have suggested. Let me know if you are you have any issues but it should work now.
