photobucket query

Can anyone help please?

I have lots of pics on my PC.

However when I upload them to my photobucket account they seem to shrink to a very small size..which becomes really blurred if I try to enlarge them!:mad:

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thank you!

    Hi,

    It'll most probably be the default picture size setting in the Photobucket web page. I'm sure they automatically decrease the size of the picture to avoid massive file sizes.

    How do the pics look when browsing in Windows? - If they are ok, then it will be Photobucket's resizing causing the issue

    what file size are the pictures? Hover the mouse over a picture to see it's details or right click and select properties
    If Adam and Eve were created first
    .Does that mean we are all inbred
  • The pics look fine in windows - thats what's bugging me!

    Size varies - from 25kb average up to 86kb.

    Can I alter the photobucket settings?
