Hello, I just wanted to say I am new here and I have been reading the discussion topics and looking at the groups and would like to say that I am very glad I joined FAA. Thank you for all the new member links, they have been very helpful as well. I have also been slowly figuring out the site as I go along. I am certain I will have questions along the way and I look forward to being a part of this great art community. Thanks again!

Anne,

Very nice work indeed!

Photography Prints

Did you mean to upload this as small as this is, only 8x12"? The others are all larger. Also, you might want to crop the frame out and post it just as the artwork, so the buyers have a choice,

Thank you all very much for your warm welcome and nice words. I can tell that I will be learning much here.

Rich... thank you for pointing out the issue with my file size. I will definitely photograph that painting again. My file sizes are all over the place because I pulled many of them from my website or flashdrive. I really need to be more cognizant of the sizes. What I was primarily worrying about was the pixel quality and sharpness. Since I have more to post and photograph I welcome your critical eye and will look forward to learning how to get the best from my work. Thanks again for taking the time to comment and give me some direction!

Anne,

Glad to help and many others here to help with any questions. Most images "resized" for the Web or websites are very small, since they want the page to open quickly and also the "DPI" is changed to 72 dpi, since that's all the monitor will show, so using images from your website, will produce very small images. And your images deserve to be larger!

Thank you Irina!

I am all about "trying" and in my case I usually learn the hard way! At any rate I have some works in progress and now a reason to get them finished. Thanks for your encouragement. I have already learned so much from the boards and will look forward to posting and sharing with this community.

I am off to check out your site. Thanks again for your well wishes.
