 * Have seen a lot of discussions on editing the php.ini to allow the uploading 
   of bigger file sizes.
 * Do you guys know where I can find the file? I’ve tried the wp-admin folder in
   the server already, but couldn’t find it from there. I’m using WordPress Version
   2.7

 * php.ini is NOT a wordpress file. Its a configuration file for PHP.
 *  If you dont see one, its because you havent created one.
 * And, just a reminder, as this is mentioned in other references to it — NOT all
   hosts allow you to use a custom php.ini.
