Permissions

You can specify whether the Photos feature is available on your group’s website and, if it is, who can view and upload photos and other images. From the Permissions list in the Photos section of the panel, select the option you want to use:

Max Size In Photos Section

If the group uses the Photos feature, you can restrict the size of images that are uploaded, to save group storage space. In the list, select the maximum size (in pixels) that uploaded images should be resized to when they are uploaded. The default setting is No resizing.

Allow Videos In Photos

If the group uses the Photos feature, you can select this checkbox if you want to allow video files to be uploaded to the Photos section.

When you select this checkbox, a Max Video Size In Photos Section list appears that you can use to select a maximum size limit for uploaded video files.
