I wish I knew why my pictures don't look quite so good when I upload them.

Wonderful shot, you are so lucky to have these visiting.

Are you uploading at the correct size, I do all the resizing and associated sharpening myself.

Looking at the size 1280X808 is OK, what JPEG compression have you set, do you include the ICC profile?

BTW a browser will resize to fit the display, this often looses sharpness. If you click the spectacles by the image you see it at 100%, looks a lot sharper then.
