File size for Gallery

[TonyW]

Although the instructions say:

"Image must be in JPEG format, no larger than 700 pixels (wide or high), and at a resolution of 72ppi. Maximum file size: 300k"

I'm assuming it doesn't matter if it's not 72 ppi as long as the 700 pixel, 300k max file size rule is applied. I think the ones I loaded were 150 ppi and they worked OK.

I'm getting the same bug as Dianna reported - once you get over 12 images there's a database bug that won't let you show the next set.

Great feature - and some great images. Going to have to get working on some more :wink:

I was wondering about the ppi too until I used the "save for web".

I first set my 700 size, then played with the quality until I got it as close to 300 as I could. Then saved it. When I opened it again and went to "resize" I see it was set to 72. (I always add the word web to the end of my filenames when I use the save for web feature, then I know it's been optimized for the web.)

Thus, the 'save for web' choice makes it pretty easy to set up your stuff for the gallery.

Anytime you are putting photos on the web they should be at screen resolution (72ppi) anyway.
