Limit on attachment size

I ran into a limit of 256 KB when I tried to attach a 721 KB zip file to a post. Limiting attachments to files as small as 256 KB seems a bit extreme. I had no problem when I attached this same zip file to a post on the nxtasy forums. I request the administrators raise this limit to something like 1 MB if it is possible to do so.

Thanks, Xander. Now I will be able to add something to these forums that I had posted on nxtasy.

... 1 MB? What about people who want to post .rbt files? (Not a problem for me, of course.)

They can learn to use a compression tool and reduce their size dramatically.

Can't use a compression tool? What kind of computer can't? I think even XP has the ability to "send to zipped folder". If you can run NXT-G, I am pretty sure you're using at least XP, Vista or maybe even Windows 7 or perhaps OSX. Here are some links to get you started:
Windows XP:

Windows Vista:

Windows 7:

OSX:

Linux:

Most of these are built right into the OS itself, so unless your system administrator (if you have one) has purposely ripped this functionality out, it's there.
Regards,
Xander
