Sharpening for upload to SM.

jsinon

I am at the beginning stages of setting up my pro account and site, and after exhaustive searching, one question I can not find a clear answer to deals with sharpening. Maybe I'm just thick in the head, I don't know. I use Nik Sharpener Pro for my output sharpening, sharpening based on image size / viewing distance with the auto settings. I have been extremely happy with the results. Will those settings, applied to the full resolution file uploaded to SM result in over sharpened screen images? Will it be good enough for a large print? I'm not the most advanced in the world when it comes to post processing, but it just doesn't make sense to me that one "sharpening" will work for all sizes. :dunno

Hi, it's really best if you upload, and then view critically the 8 display copies we make. I only sharpen once, and it's always good on the display copies too. But every one and every image is different
