 * I am adding a lot of images to my wordpress and am worried its going to crash
   if I reach the limit.
 * I have researched the WP docs and forum and tried this thread:
    [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-method-to-increase-memory?replies=3](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-method-to-increase-memory?replies=3)
   however adding to config file, htaccess file did not do anything and my host 
   has set the php.ini file to max of 64 mb
 * My dashboard has 2 different limits:
    Storage and Memory Overview [http://www.zenstream.info/troubleshooting/wp_memory.jpg](http://www.zenstream.info/troubleshooting/wp_memory.jpg)
 * Is there another way to increase the memory size?
    Can I store images in a different
   place to decrease memory size? Can I turn off post variations to decrease memory
   usage? I read you can change post variations to off in the config file but my
   config file has no setting for this? Will this decrease memory usage if I can
   turn it off somehow? Is there another way to decrease memory usage?
 * Sorry for all the questions but I have spent many hours setting this up and want
   to make sure I get it right.
 * Thanks for any help or suggestions.
