Here is an image that is 540x56 Pixels and it is only 25kb so the Forum will accept it.Mick Smith wrote:You mention above that we are limited here at Ozbow to photos that have a maximum of 1000 pixels across the top, in a landscape type shot. I resized my altered photos to these dimensions, but they weren't allowed, as they were too big. I've struck this many times before. In fact, to post my photos of the Lilydale shoot I had to reduce the number of pixels across to 500 before they were accepted. The result is a photo that looks miserably small in comparison to other photos I've seen on Ozbow.
Is there something I'm doing wrong. On the 'post a reply' Ozbow screen, I arrow down to the 'upload attachment' part of the screen. Where it says 'Filename' I hit the 'Browse' button and then I select the photo I want from my computer. The trouble is, it won't accept anything with more than 500 pixels across. Obviously I must be doing something wrong, as I've seen numerous large photos on Ozbow in the past. It seems a pity to go to all the effort of improving my photos when it's all negated by only being able to post up tiny images.
BTW That is a test image for SRGB and screens. You should see 16 steps of monochrome if your screen brightness is good.
If you go greater, I think, than 200kB the forum will reject the file as being too large. If you go greater, I think, than 1000 pixel in any dimension the forum will reject the file as being too large.
For General Users of the Forum. The settings in the forum software limit the size image you can have. Thus you need to restrict images in both dimensions and file size. (All that was true back some time ago when I held Admin privileges. Since then the site has been moved and there are new people with Admin privileges so that may have changed. Ask them for a clarification on current image sizes.)
