Set the Resolution at 80-100 pixels/inch (or the metric equivalent) and the width at 8-10 inches for horizontal photos and 6-8 inches for vertical photos, you'll end up with a photo which will display well on the forum. Save the edit and post it. Computer monitors do not resolve or display anything better than 72-100 pixels per inch, so anything greater that is a waste of bandwidth; and causes photos to display wider than the screen, which requires horizontal scrolling back and forth to read the message - i.e. a pitn. | |

| RE: Photo Posting Request DUTCH - 7/24/2006 3:43 AM Open the photo in your photo editing software and click on the resize option. Set the Resolution at 80-100 pixels/inch (or the metric equivalent) and the width at 8-10 inches for horizontal photos and 6-8 inches for vertical photos You can also just set the width to 600 - 1000 pixels. Same difference. Edited by Ducks 7/24/2006 2:33 PM | ||
