I tried to upload what is decidedly an absurd file size(285mb) and it refused to show up… is there a file size limit? did I try to take the “absurd file size” tag to another level?

it was a sfm pic I wanted it to be SUPER clear so I just got 1080p nd multiplied it by 6 the image was clear but I take it the file size was too big for derpibooru to handle

I don’t know, I barely upload things here. If I had a file that big my computer would literally melt.
 
A mod may can solve your questions or problems.

The site has a file size limit of 25MB, measured at upload.
 
However, our image processor/optimizer isn’t perfect, so occasionally (albeit rarely) it will cause an image to actually increase in size while processing. Sometimes this actually results in a file larger than the upload limit.

I just think a larger file size allowance would make things a bit more lenient and allow for higher res pics… then again I was using a png instead of jpeg so I guess I have to convert all my images into jpg to reduce filesize?

If you insist on keeping the 285 MB version, you could find somewhere else to upload it and then link to it in the description.
 
I’m pretty sure 11520x6480 is probably well past the point of diminishing returns for SFM pictures, though.

The file size limit on upload is 25600000 bytes, as mentioned here.
 
If you can’t fit your image into 25MB, there are few tools for lossily compressing it, but you would be better off rendering at a more reasonable size, or downscaling your already rendered images.

Actually while I tried to uload huge file, the information is “Image should not be larger than 25600kB”. 25600 kilobytes is 26214400 bytes.
 
Also 2 questions:
 
  1. How to search images by their file size?  
  2. Is it possible to sort images by their file size?
