I've been wondering why so many of the pics posted are a lot smaller than they used to be even though the file sizes are the same or larger, so I took one of today's pics of Mel and one from roughly the same time last year.
Now please understand, I'm not complaining in the least, but I am completely baffled . . . it's also important to note that I'm Mac based, so all the talk about different types of video cards for Windows machines means as much to me as the study of sub-atomic particles.
So here you go, the first pic of Mel is from Dec 1 2009 and has a file size of 249.6kB whereas the second is from today and has a file size 33% larger at 371.7kB
But if you check the file size settings of both pics opened in Photoshop CS4* the first shot, with the smaller file size, is actually 350% larger than the second shot which has the larger file size.
Anyone know what causes this?
* The file size information shown in the PNG file relates to the original Jpgs not the posted PNB file - I had to change file type because the site wasn't recognising the original Jpeg with the image size info . . . no idea why
