viramati Posted February 6, 2010 Share #1 Posted February 6, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi I seem to be having sharpening issues when posting on the Photo forum. I' using LR2.6 and MacOs snow leopard. all is fine when I transfer to zenfolio or flickr but my images on the forum lack sharpness. I have set height and width to 960 pixels (as suggested) etc thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybarton Posted February 6, 2010 Share #2 Posted February 6, 2010 I expect that the files are way oversized as far as file size is concerned. If the software doesn't reject the file, it will squash it right down. You need to make sure the file size is <290k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
holgerf Posted February 6, 2010 Share #3 Posted February 6, 2010 Andy is right - I made the same experience. Sometimes 960 px is o.k to stay within the restriction of 293 kB (JPG), sometimes even 900 px is still too much. You have to check the size of the file after processing if you want to be sure that the image is not squashed during uploading. Best Holger Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must be getting something wrong Andy says to make sure your file size is less than 290k. You say your file size was 770. Your file is too large. It should be less than 290k. It is more than 700k.

andybarton Posted February 6, 2010 Share #6 Posted February 6, 2010 You need to adjust the export setting in LR to get below 290kb Do you have Photoshop too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybarton Posted February 6, 2010 Share #8 Posted February 6, 2010 It's very easy to save an image down to a size in PS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomsva Posted February 12, 2010 Share #10 Posted February 12, 2010 In LR I have not found a setting for maximum file size. But pulling the quality slider to around 70% seems to give files of suitable size. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
