    Hi
    when i upload a file bigger than about 2.5M the thumb doesn’t get generated. There is simply no response. I am using the WordPress wp_crop_image routine, which is to be found in wp-admin/includes/image.php, and I cannot find out why. The documentation doesn’t give any clue.

    Can anyone help?
    thanks
    Melanie

    i think image is too big in MB
    compress image before loading into WordPress media library and try again

    Hi Contentiskey
    i NEED that my site is able to upload images around 5mb – that is my problem
    i can bump up the size no problem, but wp wont generate a thumbnail
    ‘<?php
    ini_set(‘upload_max_size’,’1000M’);
    ini_set(‘post_max_size’,’995M’);
    ini_set(‘max_execution_time,’300’);
    ?>’
    thank you and HELP!

    if you need to handle huge sized images….
    consider using a CDN – Content Delivery Network.
    I am not sure of your webhost so I don’t know of they offer a CDN
    JETPACK plugin is an option for Photon CDN: http://jetpack.me/

    Hi – my problem is not handling big sized files – its finding out how to manipulate/tweek the wp_crop_image routine to create a thumbnail from large files
    thank you
