which is tiny by current internet graphics standards. Did you see a much bigger picture that you tried to share? It's quite possible you inadvertently shared the thumbnail of the actual picture instead of the actual picture. Many sites do web programming trickery to cut down on users copying their higher quality, larger pictures. When I see a large picture I want to keep and/or share, I tryu to always open the image in a new window (or tab, depending on your browser) until I see the actual image (the last thing in the URL should be the file name and that should end with .jpg or .png or any other picture format.) Until you see that you aren;t looking at the actual picture.

Once I have the actual pic I download it and then upload to www.postimage.org - a free picture hosting site for sharing pics easily on forums that only allow hyperlinks to pics and/or do not offer robust picture uploading services.

Another really easy way to get the bigger picture with a barely noticeable sacrifice in quality is to use windows snipping tool to grab the big image you see on screen and save it. Then upload to postimage.


Feel free to ask privately or here in your thread if you want more details - I'm happy to help if I can.

Then I get the sized image I'm looking at.

I've been having issues with the size of pictures for awhile and was wondering if it was Photobucket where I upload to for picture sharing.

I'll try some of your suggestions. Thanks!

I don't use photobucket but I did also wonder if they were doing something funny to the final image. It's certainly possible. Postimage is free and pretty easy and doesn't resize images unless you tell it to. It was recommended to me by a DUer in the photography group and it was some of the best free advice I ever got lol.

Another DUer noticed she seemed to have trouble coming down the stairs on her very high heels today. I noticed it, too, because it wasn't normal for her. The photo above doesn't look like her. Maybe this woman doesn't usually wear them.
