I have the whole Hogwarts papercraft model which I'd like to post. It is so big, I do not know the number of pages, and the last time I tried to post a file larger than 50mb, it did attach properly.

Any advice?

you just need to Split the compressed file with WinRAR

Step 1: Right-click on the folder / file / files you want to compress or split

Step 2: select "Add to archive..."

Step 3: file compression dialog box displays, you just need to follow the order number

1. Name the file you want to compress
2. Choose compression format (choose RAR)
3. Select the type of capacity (choose MB)
4. Enter the size of the file size you want to compress (insert number 50)

Step 4: Click OK, the file will automatically split into several files with the size you filled in (as above, 50MB).
Then you just need to upload all the divided files and you're done

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it. Now the hard part, counting all of the pages....

it's not difficult, you just need to put it all in the same folder and then do the above operations and everything works fine.

This is my 7-Zip system. I try to split large files into 50mb Zip files, but apart from the 1st one, the rest of them become ghost files, and I cannot post them. What do I need to do?

Hi,
When you split files with 7-zip, you will get files with extensions.001,.002,.003, etc., which you will be unable to upload. Winrar will fix this problem.
Website infrastructure is limited, so to ensure uninterrupted access, the admin has limited the file size. It also prevents us from sharing some of the things we want. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I hope everyone understands. We are still looking for help to improve the site.

Files after splitting with 7-zip will sometimes generate errors, so I often use Winrar for this.
