A webpage allows its users to upload a limited number of images.
As a developer who wants to store this constant value, I wonder which term is most fitting.
There's:
-
threshold, known from some applications that I use,
-
limit, a very common term, and
-
maximum, which I find suitable, because it implies that you allow any value below it.
Other suggestions are welcome as well.

For this particular case, the images are countable, aren't they? So, the best fitting word, as you think, is maximum.
For example, for Picassa, Google defines the limits here.
