Re: Some selected by DP Merrill (1-2-3)

So how can I upload photos to the dpreview without compressed by the website?

Shoukd I resize all photo to smaller than 2640x1760 before upload?

Can I embed some external images by url in thread of the dpreview forum?

I'm freshman here with only few posts here, thanks for any suggestion.

After uploading some photos yesterday by phone (mobile web), I found these photos looks like lossing their crispness. Can anybody tell me how can I upload the photos with original quality, or embedded external photos?

Some of my photos can be found at flickr: https://www.flickr.com/people/butfly/

The versions in the threads are greatly compressed, but the "original size" versions are not so bad. I just upload the full size DP3M image, saved as a maximum quality JPG.

I also get good results from using 100% quality (least compression) but full chroma sub-sampling (4:2:0) ... (in FastStone Viewer - we can't separate compression and sub-sampling in SPP).

I downscale the images from the sdQH and the fp, so as not to overload everyone's bandwidth.

Good man ... at 75Kb/sec, I do appreciate that.

This does lose some detail.

For my pre-Merrill SD15 I leave images at 100% ( i.e. less than or equal to 2640x1760px).
