Anodyne Posted March 25, 2014 If I don't want to crop a jpeg, my simple fix is to just adjust the "quality" setting down until the file is small enough. Although I'm sure there must be some photography types cringing right now, it never seems to affect how the image looks onscreen. There's probably a less retarded solution though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karode13 Posted May 12, 2014 Open picture in Paint. Click Resize, Select Percentage and then enter 50 in each column. Easiest way to resize pictures on winblows machines. It's an inbuilt program. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torsten Posted June 3, 2014 bullit, the reason why there is a size limit is simply because of server costs. Facebook and other places collect revenue from the advertising they show you, but this forum is entirely paid by me and there is no advertising. Thing is that you VERY rarely need more than 2MB to show what you want to show. In most cases people would simply upload huge files because they are too lazy to edit them. That's fine for services that collect revenue from your presence, but for me it just comes out of my pocket. If you need to post bigger images please host them elsewhere and link. But better would be to edit them appropriately so that you don't waste other member's downloads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snowfella Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Nice Hamilton's shot Torsten. 2Mb files are huge by jpg standards! Sure a modern camera generates larger files but for posting online 1024xwhatever is generally enough, in my case I even limit file size to 400kb when I work up a photo for online use. With no crops in my case that's going from 6000x4000 and around 9mb to 1024x683 and >400kb. Below photo is a mere 333kb, can you tell?. Sure the original sized image has fine details that you won't be able to see in a downscale. Here's a portion without any scaling.
