Normally I do not keep my a.net screening emails longer than 1-2 months... And I had almost no rejections during the last weeks, so nothing to show you guys  Smile

Rejected for badscan, badcontrast.



Frankly these screeners infuriate me. I have over 450 similar in the queue that I spent hours uploading straight from the card of my £5000 DSLR. The 862 BA A319's that I'm presently uploading had better bloody be accepted, or there will be hell to pay.

I understand why a couple of these didn't make it - but the 880 shots really should have been on a.net - even with marginal quality.

Curt: This has baffled me ever since I saw your first rejections...why do you upload at 1600 wide? You would get much, MUCH better quality if you uploaded at regular 1024, especially if you added in a little hint of USM.

If you did that, your 880 shots, CO takeoff shot from DCA (personal favorite), and I'd assume most or all of your rejections or MyAviation photos would make it onto A.net.

Try it. You may be surprised.  Wink/being sarcastic

JeffM,

I just believe strongly that there is enough historical significance to these two aircraft (which most people thought had been destroyed), that the aircraft would've been worth seeing - even if they did not measure up to current a.net standards.

Futterman,

I asked you in another thread for some help in understanding your advice on the 1600 vs. 1024 thing. I never saw a reply.

- Curt

Futterman,

Copied over from the other thread:


Josh & Brian . . .

I will take your advice on the sizing, but I must admit that I don't quite understand it.

Why would an image sized to 1024 display HIGHER resolution than one sized to 1600? It seems that there would be fewer pixels with which to display the details, such as reg. numbers, door outlines, etc.

I agree with Futterman, and I'll explain, as the boy is probably sleeping.

Look at a newspaper picture. it looks decent, but once you get REALLY close, you can see all the dots that make up the picture.

When your pic is 1600 wide, it shows a closer look at any faults that there might be, and will give the impression of higher quality.

I've seen many thumbnails of shots that seemed liek they might be of GREAT quality, but was disappointed when I clicked on it to learn that they were old crappy shots with many flaws. I had fallen for it myself there!

I highly recommend you try it. It will make them more visually pleasing and hide certain faults,while maintaing the shot's integrity. Remember that most people are viewing their screens at 1024 these days, and 1024 is not THAT small to lose detail.

Cheers
