New size limitations on image attachment

The file dimensions will still be 400 wide by 600 pixels high. However, the number of allowed kilobytes will be less: 262,144 kilobytes. This is still a huge amount!

During the upgrade, I found many files that were much larger than necessary. Considering that we have over 6000 attached images and considering that on many of the large files I was able to save 75-95% of the size by simply opening the files and choosing a different compression level, I thought this was worth addressing.

If you check out the attached images you will see that there is virtually no discernible difference in quality, but a very dramatic difference in sizes. The first image has more compression and the second one less.
