Uploading photos from a cell phone

[equineforum]

the system is not allowing any photo to be uploaded that is over 500 kb for a profile picture, I can't seem to take that limit off anywhere? Can anyone help me out?

Can you upload a larger image in a thread post?  If not, then it's most likely a server limitation that is in place - usually the upload_max_filesize and post_max_size settings need to be set/increased in php.ini.  If you can upload larger ones in a post, then it most likely it's a size limitation that you have in place for their user group.  I'm not sure exactly how IPS enforces smaller limitations that may be in secondary groups since you can't assign priorities to the groups.  I would assume (and you know what happens when one does that) that the larger file size setting would be the one used if in 2 or more user groups.

The user profile photo can be checked by going to Members -> Groups -> Social -> Maximum profile photo storage size in the ACP and checking the setting (or at least that is my understanding for that setting).

Thanks! I did have a limit on the size of the profile pic. Couldn't figure out where to change that, everywhere else on the site allowed a larger picture.

humm.... it's still not uploading from a newer phone... currently trying on an iphone6. The photo is sized correctly, but the system doesn't upload. This happens uploading photos to anywhere on the site. Any ideas?
