<p>Many users do not compress or resize their images before uploading them into a post, and oftentimes WordPress’s maximum upload limit of 2MB-10MB is still too large to prevent the insertion of photos that can signficantly slow down a website.</p>
<p>WP Image Size Limit allows an administrator to set a custom file size limit that is specific to image files and smaller than WordPress’s general file size limit.</p>
<p>This is especially useful when you need to put tighter restriction on image uploads but want to preserve the ability to upload larger files of other formats (audio, video, etc.).</p>


WP Image Size Limit

Just what I needed to tamp down those designers who think it's okay to use 20MB images!

Brilliant

Adds a new setting under Settings -> Media where an admin can set a maximum upload file size for image files.

Bulk Media Register

It is an essential and convenient plug-in for registering images in bulk.

Very handy

Works well, but I had to nudge the plugin several times for large file sizes (about 3GB). Usability is rather poor.

Works good


After a backup through ftp all db entries of the media were gone. This plugin fixed just right that!



Do have a tip to improve: it would be nice to get the date of the image created and set than one because now all media files are from the date of today ;-) but hey, if that is the worst thing


Thank you so much
