Whenever I try to upload a game, I get a php error. I tried on Opera, IE, and Firefox and I still get an error.

I keep getting Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8634468 bytes) in /home/gamegum/public_html/backend/functions.games.php on line 653

Also, as a side note, does this site pay with PayPal?

The error seemed to show the file was too big (12MB), but I will poke around a bit..

Interesting. I tried uploading a 7 MB game and a 4 MB game.

Well, I was thinking that maybe it's because the name of my game was taken (it's called "Dodge"), so I've tried "Dodge." and "-Dodge-" but neither of those worked either. I still get the same error, saying 12 MB not able to be allocated. Mine is also 4 MB by the way.

If I upload from a site, does it hotlink the game from my server or does it make a copy and put it onto GameGum's server? I can put it on my server, but I've got limited bandwidth (not that I'm trying to be cheap!).

What's the name of your game, Imperator?

/edit:

My error is this:


Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 9045880 bytes) in /home/gamegum/public_html/backend/functions.games.php on line 653


I've noticed the "tried to allocate" portion is different for both of us, mine being about 8.6 MB and yours being ~8.2 MB, if that has any significance. To me, it doesn't seem like it's saying our games are 12 MB, just that it tried to allocate whatever amount of space (8 MB is below your 10 MB limit, even though my game is definitely only 4 MB in size) and then failed. Weird...
