Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.
Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Hi,
[rant]
I have noticed lately that more and more images are getting posted that do not adhere to the fine guidelines that were put together by stubbsy. Please see this link:
http://www.dslrusers.net/viewtopic.php?t=2789
In a nutshell, images should not be larger then 800 pixel on the wide side and <200k.
If you want to post larger images, give a link to the larger image and/or post a smaller version to wet our appetite. You can do this from sites like pixspot, smugmug, etc.
This will help images fit in the web browser window, without having to scroll left-right.
Please remember that not everyone have a screen resolution of 1600x1280 and not everyone has broadband.
This will ensure that everyone can enjoy the pictures you post.

Feel better now, got that off my chest. I'll make myself a coffee, probably not enough caffeine today 
Not directed to anyone in particular and hope not to step on anyone's toes.
cheers,
radar
(FYI I do have broadband an have 1280x1024 resolution but rarely have web browser maximised)

Whilst I dont condone it, I honestly think most people forget about it with a few probably who dont actually know how to reduce file sizes.
That said, I have had to point it out a few times already this week, so this is a timely reminder for those members who didnt bother to read the thread.
Cheers Radar.

Good point well made Radar.
The other consequence of overwide images is that text postings in the same thread go to the same width. A pain in the butt for all concerned.

Sorry I am guilty! Mine are resized to 800 but they arent below the 200kb, will endeavour to reduce them prior to posting... Should have read all the rules before I started posting and got carried away with uploading images...
