							| SUBMITTING PPTs  -- TECH SOS 
 |  
							| With annoying regularity, I �ll try to upload a ppt and it will tell me I have exceeded the 3 MB limit. However, when I check the size on my saved file, it tells me I am under 3 MB.  I generally have to shave it down to around 2.75-ish to get the system to accept it.     Does this happen to anybody else? If not, what am I doing wrong? It doesn �t sound like much, but sometimes that 0.25 can be the difference in really nice ppt vs. one that �s just meh,,,,,,   Thanks! (My OCD-ness is showing. Can you tell?)   |  18 Jan 2017

							| That is strange, because the limit is set to 3,050MB.  Does it happen to anyone else? |  21 Jan 2017

							| Yes, I have also experienced spending ages trying to get under the size limit without losing lots of quality. And the system didn�t accept the ppts that were 2.9 MB large... My highest achievements have been uploading 2.84MB ppt (Memory games7) and 2.86 MB ppt (Wheel of Fortune School 3). |  21 Jan 2017

							| Well, I �m really sorry that others are feeling my pain, but I do thank you for confirming that I �m A) not alone and B) not crazy.    Any pointers will be gratefully accepted.   |  22 Jan 2017

							| I �ve changed the limit to 3,5MB I hope this will be enough to allow 3MB powerpoints.  |  22 Jan 2017
