I was recently trying to upload a fairly large image (2.5mb) to the image uploader, when I got a timeout that said the execution time of 30 seconds had been exceeded. I solved this problem by making the bitmap a jpeg. I don't know if you want to change the php.ini file much for that script, but just wanted to point out the problem.

Cheers.

I don't think bitmaps are supported, hence the error.

I've had this happen to me once as well, with a large PNG. The next time I tried (without modifying anything) it worked, however.

BMP is not supported anyway, they're rediculously big and nobody in their right mind should be using them. It does say the filetypes allowed and BMP is not one of them. It would simply reject the file anyway if it was to finish uploading. The timeout should be set fairly high already but I will double check it and increase it if needed.

OK the timeout was on 30 seconds. Its now set to 10 minutes (600 seconds). That should be plenty.

Thanks for fixing the problem... it was stupid on my part to try uploading a bitmap anyways.
