One of my recent shots of Stockholm taken with Olympus C5050 in aperture priority mode. I had to compress the file quite heavily for net view.

good photo! Like the dark clouds and the sunshine on the other side.

You're right with the compression. it's really bad. But I suggest resizing the pictures in order to fulfill the maximum file size instead of compressing the picture that much.

very nice

the compression is too much too...you're better off resizing it (pixels wise not KB wise...lol) to more like 800x600 pixels....then you can have much better quality for the same size file

but make sure you save the original!

Thanks guys.

Yes, I should have resized it instead if overcompressing it, sorry, I didn't realize that it looked that bad untill posted. The original is a 15 MB TIFF, processed from a RAW file. Well next time I'll resize to 800X600 pixels instead.
