Hi Mekaeel
Thanks for posting!
I have been looking into this for you and there isn't really a nice simple way to do it. I am going to add something about this to our feature request list though so hopefully in a future version there will be a file attribute we can use for something like this.
In the meantime, I was able to hammer out a work around. Basically, there is a neat little SSI that you can use which will return the size of any file.
The only thing is that you would need to turn off some security features that would mean you can run SSI code from within your article content. The reason this is a problem is because SSI let's you access just about anything on the server and you won't want to allow that to everyone who creates articles.
Now, if you were the only one who was creating the articles, it shouldn't actually be a problem. So if you are interested in trying it out, let me know  .
