    Did you resize this before uploading?....The image quality looks poor. I upload full res shots and use the smugmug resizes...they uaually look fabulous.

    I may be totally wrong but I feel there is a problem with the clarity. I am sure if this is the case someone will be more qualified than me to advise you.

    Yes, I used a resize program to bring the photo down to dgrins upload size before I did the upload. When I started the upload there is a jpg file size for the max of 106.5 mb or something close to that. So, I made the file size 103 mb to make sure I was under the max. file size.

    How do you get it to resize the photo for you?

    Thanks,

    If you have your photos in a smugmug gallery, you go to the "Share" button. It'll bring up links for different sizes of the photo. You click and it copies the link. Then when you go to post, you click the little postcard looking icon and then paste the link to your photo.

    It even works if your gallery is "unlisted". So you could upload to a smugmug gallery before you are ready to show the pictures to your client, set it to unlisted, and use their links to post photos here.

    Not with a password.


    I have a seperate gallery set up for dgrin posts. I use it as a utilitarian type gallery and it is "private"....not seen by visitors to my site. I can, however, link the photos in dgrin or on my blog.

    I like the shot, but I do think it is cropped to tight. the biggest problem I have is that her eyeshadow clashes with the background (light blue against bright green and red and blue) but that I don't know if you had anything to do with that.
