Mostly because ZetaBoards doesn't want their servers to turn to a free FTPs. |

Advertisements are letting You to use the ZetaBoards for free. Long time ago there was a bug that allowed uploading much bigger files than 200 kb, and people used to register test boards (that are never deleted due to their inactivity) to host their own and huge files. Considering that ZetaBoards mainly is a forums software, and not a files hosting service, the limit is set to that ~50 MB (I think, I didn't check the real values since a while). But don't worry, You may use a bit more than that value, and nothing wrong will happen. Though that 50 MB is a super high value too. My ZB board is over 8 years old, and I use just 25.87 MB. So nothing to be worry about ;). |

I've never gone above 3MB Whilst more storage would be nice, I think it's unnecessary as it's a forum software and not a file hosting service. ZetaBoards Premium allows much more storage space for your forum so if you have the money then you can opt into that. If you're looking for a cloud service then I suggest Google Drive, OneDrive and even DropBox as they're all reliable services and allow you to upload to the cloud without having to open a browser (if you install their software on your computer or mobile device). More storage would be nice but there's no reason why they would, sorry. Edited by Ferby, Oct 16 2014, 09:11 AM.

PSDs, large image files (prints/themes), wallpapers for themes that allow wallpapers, etc. Of course I understand that there must be an incentive for Premium, but I also think a bump to 2-3mb would be lovely. |

50MB is the storage linit on a ZetaBoards forum which is standard and enough. |

We are looking at revamping the storage allotments and upload limits for ZetaBoards. |

That would be awesome. We currently use our uploading for our forum graphics such as the buttons and topic folders etc, and advertisement images so that would be really helpful. I also know uploaded avatars can take up space especially when you have 200+ members. It's nice to rely on the board to host images for the themes, rather than relying on places that could easily go down or eventually close which is why many themes were lost a while back because sixpop died. |
