Photo posting questions

KenM · 09-02-2014, 04:47 PM

As best I can tell, in order to post a photo, this site says it has to be no more than 19k in size. I guess there was a reason for this (dial up connections?) but that's the size of a thumbnail image which means no clarity. The photo editors that I have will not let me save down anywhere near that size even at the lowest possible quality settings.

When I view a photo posted here it is very small and a double click only increases it a tad and is still low quality.

Is there any way to add higher resolution photos or is this just the way this site was designed?

How did jimbo scan and post a photo that shows up large on my screen?

Any advise? KenM

Photos posted in User Albums are limited to something like 97K for each image.

I believe the 19K file size limit for images is when they are attached to messages. I don't know how many 19K images can be posted to one message.

Just resize the larger number (usually the width) to 600 and then try uploading. See if that works for you.

I just looked at the resolution of the picture. It is 382 x 215. Are you sure you are resizing by pixels?
