Hello, I’m an academic without a ton of money making designs for math reasons, not to make money. I bought an Aura and it’s great! But now that my trial of Premium is over I discover that there is a 100K limit on file uploads. Even my simplest designs are over this limit. I am paying for this machine and materials myself and I can’t pay $50/month (!!!?) to get Premium. The file size limitation is the only part of Premium that I need, since I make my own math models. Is there any chance this 100K limit will increase? Pretty please

Thx I will do that. Also if anyone else is in my boat I did find some ways to reduce SVG file sizes which has enabled me to cut at least some designs in the meantime.
-
follow advice here: Reducung SVG file size even more ?? - InkscapeForum.com (in particular changed export settings)
-
then further compressed here: World's Best SVG Compressor

Not sure what design software you’re using for file creation, but you might try saving your files as PDF documents instead. I make some insanely huge files in Illustrator, but I never have issues saving them as PDF documents in their smallest format.

wrong thread.
100k is like a file size limit from back when we all had dial-up. It’s really dumb.

I agree…
I remember when I made a 50megs.com account and it gave you a free 50megs of online storage. Around 2000.
