FYI I just spent some quality time with The Dashboard (cue the music!)
Please there is no reason not even to ‘gift’ the image to a client to upload a 45 megabyte image.
There were several on one page.
That just slows you blog and some will wonder to ADHD land.
I first copy the icky (yeah, I use icky and what of it?) code that wordpress spews.
I prefer NOT to link to a larger image.
I upload the size that I want to and that is the end of it.(off to your room, in my best Daddy voice)
I had to click on each to make humongous and then drag onto my desk top from I dragged (I stopped the drugs, that explains things) into PS and did a quick change from adobe 1998 to srgb and a cmnd option i to bring up the image size (all about the size) but this time I was making it smaller.
I chose 900 for the landscape and 700 for the vertical.
My reasons (most are unreasonable with an untenable deposition)
Most blogs are set for 900 and 1024 is the size of the monitors that widely used (legacy era)
Now allow for some padding (don’t hate, I need to workout) and margins.
The vertical is the most browsers allow 680 depending on how many ‘things’ are sitting under the url window.
From 45 mg to 1.5mb is a huge savings.
I saved them between 8-10 if I gad at 5-7 more saving in size.
I could have stripped them of all their exif also but chose to leave them alone.
One of the pixels was Lawyering and calling the PS-Po-Po on me.
Trumped up charges that I was pushing it around and it had diminished capacities now, pish posh.
That pixel had it coming I tells ya!
Breathe Rasta Rican breathe, I did inhale while breathing officer krupke.
I need a nap Who’s down for some OPP?
