Thanks for helping me!
Sorry, I got dpi and pixels interchanged there.


924K is suitable for framing, not for much for anything else.


In config/images, the max IH Large image width & height is set (mine is 500x750), so anything larger than that is resized by IH. If you resize your images within those constraints (before uploading), then IH does not need to do anything to them (except apply any compression factors (quality setting) that you also set there.

As I said, anything larger than the max displayed (ie 500x750) is not needed and is therefore a waste of space and upload time.

The dpi comes into play only if you scan your own images (it is a compression ratio) and effects the file size (ie 75k) and the quality of the image.

If you need help resizing your images, just PM me and I will try to help, as this is not the place for a tutorial.
