It all depends on where you want to post pictures.

Some sites will automatically adjust the size of the picture you are uploading ( the size of the picture you are uploading doesn't make any difference), others will require that you adjust ( usually reduce the size) of the picture.

Your original picture resolution (depends on your camera) can be very large. In other words the file size is big, can be over 2 mega bites. These pictures are very high quality but the file size is just too large (takes up to much memory) for a lot of sites. I have found that if I adjust any of my pictures that I am emailing or uploading to a site it’s best to adjust the original picture. I use Microsoft Office Picture Manager to do this. There are other programs that will do the same thing. It depends on what programs you have on your computer.

For instance if I’m updoading pictures to this site I adjust the original picture to 640 x 480 pixels, if I’m emailing I adjust to 314 x 235 pixels. My original pictures size is 2592 x 1944 pixels which is just too large for a lot of sites and depending on your web access speed can take a long time to upload.

I know this sounds very complicated but once you do a few you will find it’s easy. If you give me an instance I will talk you through it.
