In reply to Alan James - UKC:
> The only enforcement is on the file size. You can upload wider photos than 1000 pixels (you always could to be honest) it isn't a great idea to push it too far though since most people keep their browser windows at around 1000. Any more than this and they will need to scroll or resize which is pain.
There are a few minor restrictions apart from the file size:
- minimum file size is 30kb or 120,000 pixels (for example 400 x 300 pixels). This is to stop people uploading *really* low quality/tiny photos that don't show anything.
- no maximum file size, but if it is over 250kb it will be automatically resized smaller
- maximum resolution of 1,500,000 pixels. This allows for wide panoramic shots (eg, 2000 x 750 pixels) as well as high resolution 'normal' shots. We do recommend a maximum width of 1000 pixels though as Alan says, otherwise people viewing your photo will end up having to scroll to see it all. If the resolution is over this limit it will be automatically sized smaller.
