OK I made a php.ini like ya said. I might have put it in the wrong area not sure. I put it in the public_html but that didn't work. It says this but I don't have a etc one can I just create a folder?

The default value of php.ini. When
memory_limit = 8M (default)
post_max_size = 8M (default)
upload_max_filesize =2M (default)
If you need to allow larger uploads, please modify these values in your php.ini file (normally located in /etc/php.ini).
