Earlier today I opted to upload my inventory for testing purposes. I hit a snag
with the file size. My current brickstore file spans about 400 kb. I got a message
saying that the file is too big and the max limit is 204000 bytes. That is barely
200 kb worth, which when you think about it is barely anything at all. The file
size should be increased, I suggest increasing the limit to something like three
or four megabytes.

Is this a Bricklink issue or a brickstore issue?

What he missed 204800 instead of 204000?

How will this particular help file implement this suggestion and increase the
limit? I think it's a valid suggestion. This isn't a small time hobby
site anymore nor has it been for many many years. Once the coding and servers
are upgraded I should HOPE that we would be able to upload a 1,000,000 part store
in one go. If the need arise...

You haven't read on whom I replied, and what and why, have you?

Sometimes folks will reply to a thread in general regardless of which 'reply'
they have actually clicked on. Since Brett wasn't addressed directly I wasn't
sure. Thanks for the clarification.
