Topic: Uploading images

	mister_tmg Also on 78rpm Member since Apr 2012 1118 Points	It's sheet music scans I'm trying to upload, not records. I think it may be because I scanned them at 600dpi, rather than the usual 300dpi. It is 5062 (width) x 6560 (height). Sheet music is obviously rectangular rather than square. I changed the width to 2000 and let Paint.net adjust the height accordingly, and when I saved the resultant file, it was 5.69MB. The item is here. So I suspect that images do need to be resized, in terms of width and height - I haven't done that for ages, as I didn't think it was necessary any more. Simply reducing the file size didn't seem to have any effect. This should surely be mentioned in the guide to adding images? Incidentally, if I try to add the full-size scan of another piece of sheet music (15.6MB in total), I get this message: Quote: IMAGE ERROR ✘ The image was not added: couldn't upload the file. It's 5837 x 7341, so I again changed the width to 2000 and let the program adjust the height accordingly. It then saved as a 4.6MB file, and successfully uploaded here.
