becandcharch Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Im just uploading an album now and it gave me the option to upload 'standard' or 'hi res' I hate how photos lose their sharpness on FB so hoping they do look better. It does tell you it will take 10 times longer and Im uploading a fair few so will come back with the results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 hope my friends don't do it- those of us on slow connections and with limited bandwidth are always penalised when this happens. I guess for your business it's a good idea though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becandcharch Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Hmm.. It took about 4 mins to upload just one 2MG pic on broadband too. AND! What the hell is going on with this photo? First one is the standard and 2nd is hi-res. Hi-res looks really grainy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Standard certainly looks better ! perhaps FB's intentions are better than their capabilty to deal with so many pixels ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persephone Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 BTW - I find that photo eerie looks almost like a post mortem shot to me .....sorry;) too much TV :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becandcharch Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 I just found this in FAQ High resolution means more anyone who can see your photo will be able to download your high resolution photos by clicking "Download High Res." We will also make your high resolution photos available to platform developers so that they can create rich photo experiences. Wont be doing that now!!!

becandcharch Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 (edited) Ok so I just uploaded this photo in an album the standard way and its looks the same as the grainy one. As did some of the others but not all. Weird, as it didnt when I just posted in on my wall :D Edited to add - Aw Pers, she's not eerie.. Thats just my friend Sarah laying in a park in Elwood. Promise she's alive Edited October 5, 2010 by becandcharch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huga Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 You need to watermark Bec. And yeah, I heard about the hi-res downloading option - no way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 What/who are platform developers? I dont have a facebook account and the more I read about it the more I think it's best if I dont. A great idea in theory though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kja Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Looks like FB is using some of the same sharpening or something overdone as flickr does. I wouldn't be uploading high res anywhere at all - everything on the net can be taken without your knowledge or permission. It's just how it is.

Guest Tess32 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Don't even need high res. I googled myself and I am on a zillion russian blogs and "top 40 animal photos!" type stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
