Help needed for submitting multiple files!

I am building a page that submits an article with 9 jpgs images of 45 to 60ko in size. I got it working with no problems for two to three files, until when I tested with all nine images I saw the real problem, that wouldn't uploaded it. When I consulted with my service provider they said they have put a limit to upload of 200ko per submit. Here I am stuck with no real solution to this problem, except that I have this idea of submitting the article by breaking it down in 3 steps and by presenting three different forms which should be ok, but what will I do if the person wanted to edit the article after having submitted e.g. to modify the article later on. How will I go fetching the article and presenting it in 3 steps, but this time for update and taking it into consideration of the images stored in the file and referenced in the db. I am opened to all advice and suggestion. Thanks again. GD
