 * I’m using the NextGen-Gallery plugin and today when I went to add photos to an
   existing gallery, I got this message:
 * Error : Create Image failed. Check memory limit
 * What does this mean? How can it be fixed?
 * Thanks

 * I had the exact same problem today. I tried to upload my original photo file 
   and it just keeps giving me errors. This is the error it is giving me…
 * (Error : Exceed Memory limit. Require : 114.22 MByte)
 * Anybody know how to stop this error from happening? I even decreased the files
   size to 3mb and lower and still had an error. I’m not an expert on using WordPress
   or making websites for that matter. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

 * I’m so afraid to try the Photocrati version. Problems since 1.91 that I’ve ran
   over 1.91 with 1.90 I have zero problems.
 * Dunno what’s Photocrati doing but there hasn’t been anything positive since the
   acquisition.
 * Try an older version. Oh well good luck.
