    Question for any of the mods!

    How big can people post their pics on GFY now without them getting automatically resized?

    That feature really degrades the look of the picture

      Yea...I'm aware of that. But I would like to post pics without requiring people to jump thru hoops to see what they really look like

        good point, I think they are using Magik compression.

        let's use this thread to test it...

              That's a damn weird size man - my camera doesn't shoot that size

              I want to hear from one of the mods and get an official comment to my question

                i think it goes by max width, and they set the width at 628

                628x1000

                  Ahhhh - cool beans then. I'll resize future images to 628 on the width. Thanks for experimenting and figuring that shit out. I guess all the mods turned in early tonight

                    heh, no prob, something i wanted to know as well....better to resize it with good compression instead of having the board do it, my fire pic turned all grainy

                      Ooops! was working on some other things and didn't see this thread till now. The exact trigger point is 630-pixels on the width. Came to that number because if you run a top-spot banner in your sig that can be 624-pixels. So it gives a little margin of error between the two. Couldn't do it under 624 because that would kill any ref-code links on the sig banners.

                      It would have been a nicer fix if some people would have learned to resize images instead of just posting them right off their 5+ Mega-pixel camera's.

                      Never can please everybody.

                          Sleep well, and dream of large women.
