Slideshare has a limit of 100 mb on the size of a PowerPoint that you can upload

Hold your mouse over the file and the size of the file will appear (in this example it is 2.48 mb)

If your file is very big, it might be because you have too many high resolution photos in it, compress your photos offline by using Microsoft Picture Manager http://www.slideshare.net/sharpjacqui/how-to-compress-photos-in-picture-manager/

Or use online programmes such as http://www.drpic.com/

Or you can use PowerPoint to compress the photos, see next two slides
