New limits on posting images:

details:

Max file size (max each) = 150K
Max total thread size = 600K
Max image size (in pixels) 1024 x 768

For slow connections this is only 20% more than before so that shouldn't be a problem

We have had a lot of new screen art areas & interest here & 800 /100 limits?  ....  - well it's time to move the line.
The new sizes will allow further scope.   Smiley

Is there still a problem with the "800" pixel width of the Photos/Screen Shot, necessitating a horizontal scroll to view the full width of the picture?

The weight limits being changed are a good thing, but I can't say I feel the same for the size limits....

I thought the increased limits were to reduce compression....but by allowing the width to be bigger it just means there's going to be more compression, plus annoyance for those who will have to scroll for anything over 800 wide ( a majority of people I believe)

just my thoughts on this Smiley

Good! But as Mic and Foz, I don't feel the same for 1024x768 limit... That's the resolution on both computers I use...

Pic looks nice Rob but I had to scroll to the right to see the other 40% of the picture. 1024*768 is my desktopsize. It's way to big to be useful in these forums. But that's my opinion. The 150 kb limit is more than welcome.

I run 1280x1024, and I still had to scroll. I think we should stick to 800x600, it works well.

The extra 50k per shot and 100k per thread is excellent Pete, cheers

Looks fine to me on both Firefox & IE6 at 1440x900. I discovered when this problem first raised its head (last time the forum was updated) that it not only depends on your screen resolution but also which browser you're using. IE7 might well be different.

We'll see how it goes but for the time being I'll continue posting my photos at 800x600. I think some people will still have to scroll to see them properly.

Running at 1280 by 1024 and had to scroll. Mind you, I should be upgrading fairly soon... I think I'll just keep my screenshots at 800 wide as I was doing before.
