ophismx 2 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Hello! does anyone know how to take really High res photos for Flicker because I noticed when I take pictures they don't zoom in really well as others pictures do like 3x zoom... My photos are good I guess but they can be totally better in quality here is my flicker you can also look at my favs and notice I can only zoom in once and the people I liked phots are like 3x zoom like I was saying Link to post Share on other sites

Nalates Urriah 5,778 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Most viewers will let you set the image resolution. Most allow 4k. Black Dragon, with a warning built-in, allow ridiculously high resolutions. Link to post Share on other sites

Chic Aeon 17,527 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I shoot at 5000 resolution and then crop and size down to around 2000 to keep the file size reasonable. Note though that BESIDES the size in pixels, there are lots of other things that go into making a good photo. It isn't just about size :D. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Orwar 18,056 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 In the snapshot tool, you can set whichever resolution you want (up to 6144 pixels on either axis, in Firestorm). You'll need to unlock high-resolution shots first though. Go to Advanced, and tick 'High-res Snapshots'. Also, in the snapshot tool, you can un-tick 'Restrain Proportions' to allow for your shot to be in whichever aspect ratio you want. Personally I mostly shoot in 4:3 and 3:4, i.e. 4096 x 3072 and 3072 x 4096. I also rarely crop my shots, preferring to frame them when I take the snapshot instead. But you can increase the size and zoom out a bit to accommodate cropping if you want to. Once I've finished editing, it's only a matter of uploading it to Flickr. They don't care about the size of the image, but the amount of images you upload, so you can upload 50 mb images if you want to. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
