Hammad’s Weekend Sky #61
An early morning sky of clouds. Yes it is still raining here. Not sure what day of continuous rainy days I am up to but it seems like months.
Like last week, too early for the sun to get to the tops of the trees
I am playing around with photo sizing after talking with Cee as my media file storage on WordPress is very high and I am going through and deleting photos to diminish the total gigabytes. I don’t think the quality of my photos has suffered but I may have to rethink my name font and size or perhaps not bother with the little photos. Any suggestions?

I size my photos to 1000×1000. I think 900 will work.

Thanks Amy. These are 1024 X 760 and the second one a bit bigger. I’ll try 900 X 900 for square ones 🙂

I agree. Most people probably view photos on iPhone. 😊

On one of the WP help pages, I read that if you use the app to upload your new images, it automatically makes the file smaller with minimal degradation of the picture.

I generally reduce size from MB to kb sizing, except for my 3, varying headers. (I’m on a Mac & use their old Photos program to easily do that. Let’s zoom if you want more info.)
Word of warning, though. Last week I saw suddenly my photo storage had gone from my usual 20% to thousands over the limit. It was some sort of glitch on their side. Won’t tell you what I did, but it wasn’t good and appeared to have little effect. Next day my storage was the usual 20%, so WP must have had some major problems in that area.

Thanks Del. I have been using far to big photos 😦

Glad if it helps, Brian!
(BTW, perhaps fewer pixels make piccies less appealing to those wanting to, shall we say, “borrow” them. 😉)

That is an advantage to curtail “borrowers” I have never found my photos elsewhere yet…..yet 🙂

If you delete photos from your WP library, doesn’t it delete them from your posts? Interested to hear your answer Brian

Yes it does. Some of the old posts will have to go as well once I find them without photos or blank spots
