Description
I have tired to impaort image files of Maps which are 8MB, they are improted but I am not able to access the page to edit or view them. I will get dead white page only. And messages as such
Languages_lg's preview derivative image was missing. The derivatives will be rebuilt to regenerate it.
I have allowed for Admin to upload file of sizes up to 12 MB. Is there any limitation for Image.Module to handle files?

#1
It appears that image.module fails to create Thumbnail and Preview of image files larger than 4MB. How can I fix this problem please?
#2
What's your PHP memory_limit set to? Image manipulation is done completely in memory, scaling 8MB JPEGs (or other compressed image formats) would require excessive amounts of memory.
#3
I set my PHP memory to 40MB right from the start.
#4
Well, try to increase it to 64 or even 128 MB and see if that helps.
