Jacob,
When you upload a file, it appends a few of its own variables. One of them
is size - assuming the file is a variable called $file:
if ($file_size > $max_size) {
echo $file_name . " was too big!";
}
Also, you could check for Mime types.
if ($file_type != "image/jpeg" || $file_type != "image/pjpeg") {
echo "We only like jpegs!";
}
As a footnote, 500Kb is 512000 bytes (1024 bytes in a Kb).
