Hi all, can somebody share the secret to having your photos appear sharp and clear when you post them? I've obviously been doing something wrong over the past year, as any .jpg photo I post - which looks ok when viewed at its normal size in a graphical editing tool like MS-Paint - gets expanded to anywhere between 150-200% of its original dimensions, making the image look choppy and/or blurry. I was so disgusted with my most recent attempt to share an image of a model I've been working on in the Newest Additions to Locomotive Roster thread, that I wound up deleting the post (I don't want anybody's first impression of this model to be a sloppy one).
I see other photos posted here regularly that are perfectly in focus, so I know there has to be SOME way to do it. Should I use some other graphical format besides JPEG? Put additional "white space" around the image to fool the browser into thinking it's already large? Stop using my cell phone camera and go back to using my Digital Rebel? I've run out of ideas...
