8.2. How do I adjust my camera settings so I don't have to resize my images?

Today's newer digital cameras produce files that are wonderful for producing excellent prints, but create image file sizes that are too large for Internet use.  If your camera is producing images that are over 1600 pixels wide and take up 2 or more MB (megabytes) of space, they are much too big for uploading.

Your camera's manual should explain the various camera settings available. To be able to use your images as produced out of your camera, please adjust your camera settings.

The widest image our server will accept is 1600 pixels, so if you currently have images that won't upload, or are uploading much too slowly, you would need to use an image editing program to resize them.

One such program we recommend is called Irfanview and is free.

Download and install IrfanView
