Title: Help posting pics
Post by: Bear on May 25, 2009, 06:55:16 pm
Is there a trick to making them not get all pixelated? I have a bow I'm ready to post but the pics of my last bow looked pretty bad on once posted. I have excellent pics, but by the time I resize them to fit the board they are all blurry and pixelated. Any ideas? What are the maximum pixels allowed here?

The file size limit is 200kb, which is usually a pretty good, sharp pic. If you resize them to 640x480, most of them will post. If some still wont, try saving them at a bit lower quality, but you should be able to get good sharp pics within the size limit. What program are you using to resize them?

I'm using Hijack. 640 wide is what I have been doing. Maybe I should jsut try again.

Depends on if you're making them bigger or smaller.  For making them smaller I use paint on my computer, and reduce to 25%.  If you're trying to make them bigger, you're probably better off using PhotoBucket, and posting a link.

Just use photobucket.  You don't have yo re-size them and they always come out good

Thanks everyone. This last batch came out great, just using Hijack. Guess I must have just overlooked something before.
