Re: Dumb Digital Question...


Sandie,
 
This could be what has happened. If so you unknowingly set a switch deep in the operating system to automatically downsize all images you send via email. You can read about the problem here:
 
 
Hopefully the force will be with you and this is your answer. At least it's worth a look.

This might be really obvious to most of you, but here goes anyway.
 
Please provide an answer that isn't too technical...or email me off list
 
When someone emails a digital photo to me at 300dpi with a size of 4x6
in jpg...why does it degrade to a lesser resolution when I email it along?
I don't save it or touch it, I just email it direct. My editor wants the photo
at 300dpi 4x6 size. How can I get it to him without it "changing" as it
goes "through" my computer?
 
Any help would be appreciated.
