The file size limit for this NG after encoding is 1Mb, which in practice 
means about 700k before encoding IIRC.

As far as size of file is concerned, what format and what codec are you 
using?  You could also try encoding at a lower quality setting, or doing 
what other people here tend to do when they end up with an oversized 
animation, and put it on a webpage somewhere and post a link.

Bye for now,
