 * I have installed NextGen Gallery as instructed.
    I have created a new gallery
   successfully. I tried to upload some photos from the plugin it doesn’t work and
   generated the following error:
 * Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 52166656) (tried to allocate 12288 bytes)….
 * I uploaded the photos with FileZilla FTP client.
    I went to edit the gallery 
   that I have created earlier and scan for images. The above error shows.
 * Please advise. Thanking you in advance.

 * I knew it. Because photo sizes are too big.

 * I’m getting the same error on any images above 1MB. Is there a solution outside
   of reducing the images before uploading? I’m developing a gallery that allows
   multiple novice computer users to upload pictures and I need the process to be
   as simple as possible. Any help would be appreciated.
