solved upload size for images

Hi, sorry if i'm asking to many simple questions ....I have two questions, the first is how to set up more than the default quota everywhere i look i don't see anywhere to set up other quotas. THe second is i have changed my php.ini file to all 100m for memory, upload and and post sizes, which should mean that I would be able to set the max upload to 25m .... however the default quota is still set to 2m and the use default button is greyed out
thanks
Ken

not a problem. If you need to ask these questions, we know we still have work to do on docs. ask away.

If the changes are not taking effect, try restarting apache.

Michael, thanks - i've restarted apache a couple of times, even reloaded the system - everything is still set to 2m on the example quota. I checked the php.ini file just to make sure that it was the correct one .... here's the output

ken-home@ubuntu:~/Desktop/genosis-open-source$ php --ini

post_max_size = 100M
ken-home@ubuntu:~/Desktop/genosis-open-source$ cat /etc/php5/cli/php.ini | grep "memory_limit"
memory_limit = 100M

Thats the CLI version of php, check the one that apache is using by going to
ACP -> MODULES -> CORE -> SYSTEM CORE -> TOOLS -> SYSTEM CHECK -> click the button (screenshot)

duhhh .... i should have realized cli and not apache2 ... it's now changed

sorry one more post ... so i been playing around with different values in the php.ini file, and noticed that in core -> quota the size did change, however when i go into image -> quota the max size always remains at 10M - is that expected ? I even have it set to 512M in the php.ini file and that shows up in core -> quota - i have run system check, and Int. check

Thats hardcoded into the jrImage_get_allowed_image_sizes() function in the module.

Uploading images from the Hubble space telescope? an image larger than 10MB necessary?

(If it is necessary, please say, we'll get something in.)
