[support] Node gallery mysterious file upload limit

[Alexander Arul]

Nginx was the culprit. By default it seems to limit the upload to* **1M*. I
put these two directives in the http{} block of nginx.conf.

*client_max_body_size 32M;

client_body_buffer_size 128k;*

And voila I can upload!!

Cheers
Alex
