You can't upload projects bigger than 10mb - it's the limit.

Re: How can i upload a big project?

filo5 is correct-  but there are several ways to reduce it to under 10MB:
1) Under 'extras,' set the sound and image quality to a lower one.
2) If you have many copied sprites, consider removing some.
3) Long notes are uploaded with the project. Remove any long note (BTW, every 1024 characters in them is 1 added KB), and add them back online.
4) Remove all nonfunctional scripts. (ie: I often leave numerous blocks around as I edit a project. I can save space by removing them.)
5) If you've left the default costumes & sounds in any sprites, and you don't need them, then remove them. (saves 43 KB/sprite).
6) Empty any lists that you have populated. Again, for every 1024 characters in each list entry, this adds 1 KB.
If you do this, there is a good chance that you'll be able to get your project under the size limit.
