Aunt Sally's crap family reunion shots and Cousin Tina's drunk-a** bar photos should look simply stunning... :rolleyes:

Heh! Yeah, could you imagine what most FaceBook photos would look like filling up a screen?

I forget -- is that full "hi def"? My ancient 50" plasma is only 720p.

(*#&(### finally.

I don't need 2048, but something filling a laptop screen, and not having them recompress the picture, would be very nice.

My imagine composition sucks. I need a heavier lens.

Higher resolution photos for them to abscond with licensing rights.

Fab idea. :rolleyes:

I also read that there will now be a "Download" button. I'm not too sure I'll be placing higher res photos on facebook.

I guess Facebook is having trouble selling 720px images. 2K images should solve that problem.
