No limitations besides your patience.

Disk space is currently selling for US$0.60 per gigabyte. A VERY large image 
in any compressed format takes perhaps 50 megabytes. That means I can store 
20 pictures for 60 cents, which is 3 cents per picture.

If you don't want people stealing your high-res images you should of course 
not put them online, but if you want it to be available, just upload it to 
the Leica Users Gallery and the software will take it from there.
