If you are going to upload as an image put into a post (as you did), it is 500px on the longest side. If you are going to put something into your gallery (you should set one up, Weez), around 800-to-850 on the longest side works pretty well.

In addition to the 500 pixel length restriction, I believe you get up to 500kb. My images are usually around 200 - 300kb, but anywhere in the 100KB range gives good results too.

Let's try this one. If it still pixelates, please let me know. I re-sized it to 500 pixels and that brought it down to 139 KB.

It always kicks back at me if I have more than about 246 kb.

Weez, love the hummer! Congrats on catching that shot.

Thanks to all of you for the kind words. The sanctuary was truly a fantastic experience. I'm ready to go back and just spend the day shooting pictures.

Oh, it definitely could be that low. I haven't gotten the error message for awhile so I don't remember.

Weez, I think the 2nd version you posted looks way better. Again, great shot!

Courtney

Am thinking seriously about setting up a gallery. How do I do that or where do I go to get that process started?
Thanks for your help.

Louise, your hummingbird photo is terrific. Outstanding!

Weeze, to make a gallery you must be "registered" with PrestoPhoto. It has been so long since I joined this forum I can't remember whether or not that was required at the same time I registered for the forum. To both register with PrestoPhoto and to establish a gallery you must go to the prestophoto website; you do that in the upper right corner of any of the forum screens...

After you get to that page...

I don't remember all the steps, just muddle along following the prompts. If any problems, ask away and people here will help.

Thanks for the info, Rusty. I'll give it a try and see if I can get some of the pics up that are taking up space on my computer.
