Help with posted photos

[lasfotografias]

Hello. I am new at Pixelpost and I am just starting to get my site all ready.

I have posted two photographs on my site (www.lasfotografias.bethcwinsor.com)

I noticed that the size of the image posted on the site is is different from the size which I originally set when I cropped it on Photoshop. For example, the size I want to use is 700 x 500 but the posted image on the site is re-sized to 600 x 412. Also, the quality of the photo is REALLY REALLY bad after I have posted it, even if the original image on my computer is set on high resolution.

What is going on?

I hope someone can help me

pixelpost does not adjust the size or the quality of uploaded images at all. - apart from when making thumbnails obviously! i don't know if a server configuration could be affecting uploads - perhaps you could ask your host.

Did you use any validators to check?

your page is full of mistakes, 4 errors in HTML validation
CSS cannot be checked because of errors in html

but: you define the image in a div, id="image"
this #image is not defined at all in your stylesheet
you use this id more than one time, but if you use a stylesheet-definition more than one time, you must use a class and not an id

follow the html-validator, clean the errors, by that maybe you might find the errors

Plus: if you include an image without any width and height you cannot control the result

that's why we have these pixelpost tags:
<IMAGE_WIDTH> || width of the image in pixel
<IMAGE_HEIGHT> || height of the image in pixel

use them in the template!

good luck

Let me clarify this....

First, I need to check the html validators and fix the errors. Correct?

Second, I need to put these pixelpost tags: (<IMAGE_WIDTH> and <IMAGE_HEIGHT>) on the template. Is that right, or do I need to do them on the css stylesheets? I am a bit confused.

Third, I am really new to pixelpost and html in general. Can anyone please help me by giving the exact code for the image size and where to put them?

Thank you heaps!

yes, because without errors you will be closer to the desired result!

Thank you heaps!

here an example:
<div id="image">
<img src="images/<IMAGE_NAME>" width="<IMAGE_WIDTH>" height="<IMAGE_HEIGHT>" alt="<IMAGE_TITLE>" title="<IMAGE_TITLE>" />
</div>

all PixelPost-Tags belong to the template!!! Not the CSS!

good luck!
