Amazon S3 bucket policy for anonymously uploading photos to a bucket

Question

I am planning on using Amazon S3 to let users upload photos from an iPhone and then let them be publicly viewable.

I am having some trouble understanding how to set up these security constraints in the bucket policy:

• Everyone can read every file.
• Everyone can upload a new file that is maximum 256K large.
• No one can delete any file.
• No one can modify any file.

Ok I sort of worked it out in the end. The only thing is that you can't set different permissions on adding files and updating files. They are all covered by s3:PutObject. Also, it doesn't seem possible to restrict file size.

            },
            "Action": "s3:GetObject",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::bucket/*"
        },
    {

            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": {
                "AWS": "*"
            },
            "Action": "s3:PutObject",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::bucket/*"
        }
  ]
}
