What is the best way of posting pictures without losing quality? I have posted some pics that I thought were sharp, but when the pics are reduced to the 800 x 800 POTN limit, the sharpness and quality suffer.
I'd appreciate any tips.

If you want to attach pics to your post go to Microsoft's site and download their Image Resizer Power Toy. After installing it gives you an option in your right click menu to resize any pic you click on to one of three sizes. Works good and it doesn't get any simpler. While your there get their Raw Image Viewer Power Toy also. 7D MKII ■ 10-22 ■ 15-85 ■ 28-135 ■ Σ 50-150 ■ 70-200 f4L ■ 100-400L ■ 580EX II

Guys, if you haven't yet,give MS Image Resizer a try. All you have to do is open windows explorer, right click any picture file (you don't have to even open it), and with 2 more clicks you have a resized copy for uploading to the web. It doesn't get any easier or quicker. 7D MKII ■ 10-22 ■ 15-85 ■ 28-135 ■ Σ 50-150 ■ 70-200 f4L ■ 100-400L ■ 580EX II
