How to set the Max Photo Size to upload 7.1+

I've read that in later version of Dolphin it has for some reason been removed from the admin setting. 

Seems correct since I can today only set sizes in Admin section.

I have to go in and change in a file hidden somewhere.

Can you point to where this change is done?

If you are talking about the image size for the photo that is displayed, that setting is still in admin; go to photos in the module list and then click on settings.

The original is not resized but stored as the original.

Interested in knowing where to set max size 100kb for example.

Not size in width or height.

Because that is not the way it works.  If you like, you can go into the code and set a jpeg quality level in percentage, that controls the amount of compression in the file; too high compression does throw away details in the image.  Pixel size does translate into a rough file size.  Also, if you are concern with storage space, then you need to edit the code and not store the original file; it is the original file that eats the storage space.  Go visit the link posted above.

So when I upload a photo and it gets rejected it is not because off the size in kb is to big?

PHP has file upload size limits.  You need to check and see if it is the settings in php.  You have file upload and max uploads.  That could be where the issue lies.  However, that setting is also going to limit the size of videos uploaded as well since a file is a file as far as php is concern, it does not matter the type.

"Can you point to where this change is done?" Even though I haven't found where to set the physical size limitation yet my problem seems to come from something else.

File that was attempted to upload was saved as JPG but was in fact a BMP image. That was the cause of the failed upload.

Thanks for the kind attempts to help out.
