hi dan, i have to ask a "ranger" (have searched but couldn't find it)
--- what is the maximum size of picture which i should upload, i will still make them for me with everything the camera can, but my pictures are 3000x4000 and when i look them at the spotting they are reduced to , what: 2000x1000 ?! why? many details of small/tiny/little spotting are gone.
---- and when i look at pictures: i set them to full-screen, then they come in my screen, "but" everytime i re-click the picture it get smaller: ( example: when the uploadet picture s to see with 2000x1000, then a the first time, it is 2000x1000, then i jump to the second picture and then back to the first. Now the first picture will be to see as 1500x800, when i jump to 2 again and back to 1, the 1 picture is now to see as 1200x500.) do you understand my problem, when i doesn't describe it understandly i will make a photoserie of the problem. hope we can eliminate these problems. thanks
