Uploading a PPTX (powerpoint 2010) file to an instructable

I just published an instructable and was unable to attach a PPTX (a powerpoint file from the new version of ppt), but when I saved the file as a ppt (the file type for the old version of powerpoint), it attached fine.  Maybe this means there's something wrong with uploading PPTX files?

The ppt that worked was 380 kb, the pptx was 258 kb but wouldn't load.

I'll pass this onto our coding team. It might just be that the new power point is too new, and we haven't added it to our approved attachments yet. It should be fixed soon.

Can you tell me how big each of the file types are?
