I know for a fact that the second hald million will go faster, unless I decide to pull the plug (God forbid).

Stephen 03 September 2006 13:24:25

I forgot to add, drizzling here in Nearctica too.

Stephen 03 September 2006 13:23:02

Congratulations on the half million, Paul. I predict the next half million will go a lot faster!

Paul Beuk 03 September 2006 09:59:31

here we still see yet lots of hoverflies.

crex 01 September 2006 20:16:06

The hoverflies seems lost now when almost all wild flower is gone ...

2 jorgemotalmeida: yes u can ajust size/quality ratio, but some quality loss is inevitable since JPEG format implies compression anyway and more advanced formats r not directly supported by popular we

crex 01 September 2006 15:51:19

Large size pix (specially width) ruin the layout and forces the viewer to scrol. No good. In FAQ says max 600px width.

to get big images it's easy. Save for web option - no crop is necessary in this way - and there is a bar that enables us to save a much more bigger image but image suffer a little.

jorgemotalmeida 01 September 2006 15:29:01

crex. English could trigger these things. Like Portuguese. Yes, big images, they use I think jpg very compressed without lost any initial quality.

crex 01 September 2006 15:14:54

I mentioned big, but I didn't mean great ... I was refering to pixels.
