Forum:Uploaded image size limit increase

Would it be possible to have someone increase the uploaded image size limit from 5MB to 6MB? I have a few very high resolution images that are just over the 5MB threshold. I don't think I will ever have any 7MB images, but increasing it to ten would be a safer bet, just in case. Thanks --BBilge 00:28, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Having just said that, one of them is now 8.37MB, heh. --BBilge 00:53, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
 * What are these images? and what format are they? --Uberfuzzy 01:11, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The images are high resolution scans of character paintings. They have large transparent regions, so can't be stored as JPEG; I am storing them as PNG to preserve maximum quality. Here is an example of one that came out under 5MB. --BBilge 01:52, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

I have been informed (by e-mail) that the limit has been raised to 6MB, however it has not. Does this take time or is this an error? --BBilge 10:52, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I believe there are some methods of reducing the file size of PNG format images without changing any pixels; I can't say how effective it is though, I've never tried. -- Sixorish 12:52, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
