You can upload zip folders, as you can see, I did just that. However, it does depend on what you have in the zip folder that will cause it to not be allowed to upload. What are you trying to upload? Attached File(s) New_Compressed__zipped__Folder.zip ( 22bytes ) Number of downloads: 4

I think that when you add an attachment it tells you the limit that you are allowed to upload underneath the attachment. But it is different for team members, so I may be wrong.

My guess if you're getting a white page is you're hitting a server hard limit. Most likely to big. See if you can upload it to one of the many drop boxes on the net.
