I can not upload images into my gallery forum the size that I can upload in the gallery sample forum on this site. I've tried every combination of numbers possible (instructions should be clearer) and can only get it to approve mini images at best. 8m doesn't work, 100000 doesn't work, 1 doesn't work...please help:

Could someone please share with me what you actually type in to your Gallery forum permission where it says:

"If this forum is a gallery forum, this setting dictates how large each image may be. Max size set in php.ini is 8M, so you may not exceed this size."

Are there other place to type this in?

Thank you...It's been a week since my first install. Need to get this forum up and working!

Well for me I set mine to 1 mb which is 1048576. I put this value in cp>Gallery settings>Maximum size in bytes for uploaded pictures: 1048576
Of course I am on ver 7.2 so it may be different for you.
I will know this weekend when I upgrade to 7.4

100000 bytes is very small that equates to 100 kilobytes or .1 megabytes.
what you uploaded was 158031 bytes 159 kb .159 mb

Thanks once again Ruben. This is why my dad stayed up all night with me and my math homework.....I guess... I thought his genius was genetic?
