Minor WorldAnvil UX annoyances. 

What WorldAnvil says: "Use the Images & Files feature to upload images and files!"

What WA means: "Files? Only if they're JPEG, GIF, or PNG. Which are images anyhow, but we like to call them files also. Cover all the bases, why not?"

What WA says: "Upload files up to 1.0MB in size!"

What WA means: "Upload files up to 1,000,000 bytes in size! You know, not like a megabyte like everyone actually uses the term, but like hard drive manufacturers do. That's okay, right?"

The filesize limit would have been less of an issue if I could just upload this PDF. sigh
