Update 5 : From March, 2012 – Facebook upgraded the photo viewer application to support a full-screen view up to 2048 by 2048 pixels, the maximum upload size for users. Update 4 : Just in case you are searching for this … the new Timeline Cover image / photo size is 850 x 315 pixels. Update 3 : From end August, 2011 – now Facebook can display the photos up to 900 pixels (you can upload photos with bigger size, but it will downsize it to 900 pixels to display). In addition, the site rolled out new uploader, friend-tagging feature and lightbox based viewer. Update 2 : From 2nd October 2010, Facebook upgraded their photo album to support upload of photos with 2,048 pixels. So if you have fast Internet connection, then why not resize the photos to 720 pixels and share those with your friends ? Update 1 : From January 20th 2010, Facebook has upgraded their photo album feature to support 720 pixels high (or wide). Lastly, upload those processed pictures to the album. Then, use the sharpening tool or unsharp mask within your image editing tool to sharpen the pictures. Therefore, before you upload the pictures to your newly created album in Facebook, try first resizing the picture to 604 pixels wide or high. In fact, the optimal size for pictures in Facebook album is 604 pixels high (or wide). That requires Facebook to resize the pictures to fit their page layout, and makes your pictures look blurry. Even though nowadays’ digital cameras can capture very high resolution pictures but you shall not upload your full-size pictures to Facebook album straightaway. The reason is simple, your pictures are not optimized to be displayed in Facebook. As mentioned here, documentation or tutorials of OV3 are almost non-existent, so sometimes I get frustrated with it and give up for a while (and its awful slowness with no indicator that it is still working on an adjustment makes it even worse).Are the pictures in your Facebook album all look blurry, or out-of-focus ? While I shoot RAW, the goal is always to try and get the shot as right as I can right out of the camera. I feel it could be a very educational tool to understanding the in camera adjustments that can (and should) be made at the time of the shoot. With older shots I am finding that while it can straighten up things, that I didn't shoot the shots with keystone in mind I end up with a straight, but severely cropped scene.Īnd also I simply want to better understand OV3 in general. OV3 showed me its usefulness as well as showing me you really need it ON at the time of shooting so you frame the shot correctly with the keystone on. I have now added the keystone function to one of my camera's function buttons to try and get in the habit of using it more while shooting. I started to play around a bit with some of my older shots in OV3 to see how well it corrects those leaning back buildings. But there are those few times where playing around with OV3 I get something closer to what I envisioned when I took a shot when using OV3.Īnother feature I knew about but kind of ignored it the keystone correction. In many other instances I find iPhoto's implementation of my Oly RAWs are as good as OV3 so use it for the bulk of my stuff. I keep meaning to play around with OV3 more as I think in some instances I have found its processing of my RAW files give much better colors and texture than my usual work flow which is just iPhoto on my Mac. I probably didn't notice it since I haven't played around with it that much and so don't recall ever going back to the same photos with it. When I open OV3 my edits show up with the photo, but what happens if my system were to crash and I had to reload OV3?Īh, thanks for that. On a related note, are the edits I make are saved with the file? Or do I have to do this manually. I haven't deleted much because I'm still figuring out the management. I'm also concerned that these pictures are in a folder named "Saved pictures." I might have named it that, but normally I would use either the date, or a more descriptive name, so I'm worried that I somehow messed up as I was working on the files. I can see the photos in my file explorer, but I cannot find a way to relink them. I'm importing from the camera fine, I can edit my pictures and export them, but then tonight I started getting, "The linked file is missing" for images from a particular shoot.

I'm not sure I'm doing things efficiently and correctly. Most of my question are around file management and work flow processes. I'm pretty good with photoshop, so I'm familiar with many of the tools. I did a bunch of google searches, but came up with very little. I was afraid people would confirm there's not much out there.
