Question about picture quality.

When I post a pic. in a thread, the quality (read sharpness), is not very good. I can right click on the photo and select "refresh picture with full quality" and it renders it as sharp as I see it through my camera.

My question: By doing this....do others see the "refreshed version" of the pic. or does each person have to do that for themselves.

I am new to posting pics. so don't be afraid to tell me "like I'm stupid". ;-)


Thanks, Flint.

It may be your provider or web browser. Do you use a web accelerator?

Yup, "propel".

I had wondered about this as well. I don't use an accelerator on my systems, and don't have the option to refresh a picture at full quality, which suggests that ikt is the accelrator and its caching that are doing this. My browsers on all of the various systems I use display the photo at the quality provided by the file. I suspect that most other folks get the same quality unless they use a web accelerator.

Try not using it, or nor worry about it at all. The main thing is most of us are seeing high quality pics,
