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).

James.
