To give the best results what is the max size MB jpeg that can be uploaded is it 10 MB or 100 MB I do not create jpegs unless required for upload .Most of my finished tiffs are 100 MB to 300 before upsizing to 20" × 50" or whatever size I am printing that day. I am assuming only jpegs can be uploaded . I have uploaded here before but would like to put the largest I can....know to store original for Me thats a tiff or psd.

I haven't seen it written anywhere but from experience, it appears to be 25MB.

Keep life simple... go to Faststone.org resize and adjust to JPEG at a reasonable size. JPEG is the Star Trek Universal Translator even the clunkiest of computers, or an HDTV can view it. Yes certainly JPEG is up-loadable.

You sound like my friend in England who struggles with LR and was finally able to send my some photos... 90 mb TIFFs !!! I do most of my work in JPEG, and if I goofed, I use my RAW file to salvage the photo.

You said, "tiffs are 100 MB to 300 before upsizing " What program do you use for UpSizing?

Yes, uploading original is good... up to a point. I just looked at the Help files, there doesn't seem to be an indication now as to sizes allowed.
Just be aware, that if your files are too big, people will simply not download them. I know I wouldn't.
Yes, you can upload files other than .jpg

I use Cs6 and Cs5 with a plugin called genuine fractals .I print on a Canon ipf8300 a 44 " Wide format printer for Me and others I print for some prints are 40" x 60" my printer driver sends the image @ 600 dpi most images from Camera a d810 are 24" X 16 " @ 300 dpi out of ACR native .Before processing never becoming jpegs but 16 bit throughout post processing . I also shoot @ 14 bit raw for highlight recovery.So the files are large from the git go .P.S. I hate Lightroom I use ACR it is what Lightroom is based on .I keep it on the computer but don't use it. I hate the side cars ....
