The funny thing is that this week, due to a variety of factors, I actually did upload a Fark-sized original at about 140-150k. That’s what was so bloody surprising. I guess when I went to the see all sizes page, it just kinda did its own thing to my small-enough pic.
Funny thing is is that flicker will actually make files larger, as in .jpeg file size. I uploaded all mine with a max file size of 225k and they all ended up posting at over 270k. Even for a same size image, the file size gets larger… really quite silly. I found that more compressed images do come out smaller than less compressed, but still can grow a lot.
Usually I found that the medium medium size is OK file size wise, but sometimes it isn’t, but the small medium is, but its sooo tiny…
I don’t believe the original size is an option if you don’t have Flickr pro. Sometimes they seem to work, others they don’t.
But yeah, I will be linking to original size from now on…
