Hi,

Or if you want to limit the upload file size cross your site in one place you can simply do it in the httpRuntime section in the web.config by specifying maxRequestLength:

<httpRuntime 
    maxRequestLength="5120"
    executionTimeout="3600"
  />

Open in new window

In this example it's limited to 5MB (5x1024KB).
