Question for Dan
« on: August 12, 2006, 22:51:59 »
Hi Dan,

I was just wondering how you decide whether to resize &/or compress pics submitted for the competition?  Sorry if this has been covered before - but is there a max size that we should send?  I entered the June comp. for the first time, having only just got a digital camera, & I checked how big the pics were in the May comp. to make sure I didn't send one which was too big, but the one I sent was compressed from 139 to 73 kb (I realise 139 is quite big, but there were several others bigger than 73, so why 73?) and also, more bizarely, resized from 450x600 to 480x640.

This isn't sour grapes because I didn't get any votes - having seen the other photos, I didn't expect to - I didn't even vote for my own photo - that dragonfly was fabulous  8), & so was the one which won.  I'm just curious to know how you decide these things - & if possible to make sure I send photos in future which are the right sort of size & won't get changed.  Thanks!

Juliet
