image sizes

[pfannkuchen2001]

hey,

im very new to any blogging system, but i like to have my own photoblog. after a log searching periode i found pixelpost. im deeply impressed. this is a realy nice blogging system.

after i installed it, i downloaded Delicious (template).
but now my question: when i upload a picture, the blog uploads it in real size! (and this are reeeaaaly big images from a D200^^)
it would be nice, when the images get resized when i upload them.

please help me!

[pfannkuchen2001]

yes! thanks a lot.

my only problem is that the image quality isn´t realy good. so nothing in comparison with Photoshop ore sth like this...

but its ok.

thanks

You can set the image quality on a scale from 0 (real bad) to 100 (really good). Please check that out.

[pfannkuchen2001]

i did that.
but the image quality is much better when photoshop is used to resize the images...

but anyway, the addon is pretty good!

thanks

well you can resize the pictures in photoshop and then upload that picture.

Be sure not to use the save-as-web, you'll loose exif functionality

I asked dwilkinsjr to implement a sharpening procedure.
