Upload Size Raised To 400 Kilobytes

11.09.07

We have raised the upload size maximum to 400kb per photo to improve the quality of photos at fotocommunity. This also means that there is no more need for double uploads, which will give some more uploads than before when double upload was used before.

The size limit of 1000 pixels wide and high remains unchanged.

We hope you all like it, enjoy!

Thanks! This is great news and will mean less fiddling with compression figures and loss of quality detail. And no more forgetting to click the double upload feature. Kathryn

Great !!
as other happy to know pictures will add quality;)
thanks a lot FC !

Why does fotocommunity impose such a low limit.
All other sites from flickr to picasa are more generous.
And if there needs to a limit at all why make it such an odd number and not a typical screen size like 1024
or 1280?

i think i am going to enjoy this . can you tell how i can send photos by email to you shirley

i am so excited with maurice clegg work .i hope some i will be as good shirley-talbot@hotmail.com

Bigger photos will bring more quality, but keep in mind that there are also more chances to have them used by someone else without you even knowing it...

Exemple of one of mine..
http://concoursphoto.voyages-sncf.com/popup_gagnants.html
its "La photo de la semaine du 27 aout au 02 septembre"...
If you dont care about situations like this, than no big deal.
Anyway the extra size will bring more quality to the people who sees this amazing place...and works!
Cheers and keep with the good work

It's almost September of 2009 and I just checked the English FAQ's on picture upload size. It still quotes the old 150K for single and 300K for double uploads. Almost two years after the new 400K limit was introduced.
