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 :disgust

you cant but the pic is clickable, so if they click it they see the full size

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 :thumbsup

good point, I think they are using Magik compression.

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

800x602

looks like this is it

That's a damn weird size man - my camera doesn't shoot that size :1orglaugh

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

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 :thumbsup

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. :Oh crap

Thanks TD - makes perfect sense :thumbsup
