@jlrdw - I think you may have misread my post. I want no constraints in terms of size or ratio. That's the problem.

@Snapey & @sutherland - I removed everything from my log file. Tried to upload an image that's 2000x3000px, got the error. But nothing was added to my log file. In my browser, I just get a standard error page that says:

domain.com is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500

I figured it out. The php.ini file that the server was loading was the wrong one.

Thank you @Snapey, @sutherland, and @Waldemar for the help.

Sorry, but very first question:

Is there a setting to limit the px dimensions of an uploaded file?

Now I see problem.

Need to make image web ready I myself use Adobe photoshop. High resolution (large) images and mobile friendly don't match, a big no no.

I'd restrict uploading anything until either

• User makes image web ready

or

• You find a decent library that does it for them.

I know Facebook optimizes webifies images

There answered.

Oh, Never trust user input, never.

@jerauf sounds like this was the answer

his server process isn't reading the correct one

OMG =)
