If possible I’m looking for some info on optimising images that are for upload onto this forum.
Is there an optimum width/size/resolution?
Will look into it when I get home.

Played with it a bit, on my screen, the images get scaled to around 600-700 pixels wide, but I think the scaling may depend on screen resolution.

Lets try!
1x 1980px:
2x 1980px:
The answer is yes, resize is set to 690px:
So if you want to optimize your uploaded pictures to the best display/size ratio go with a wdith of 690px.
For the default layout you are safe with that.
I don’t know how that is with the experimental wide one though.
Greetings.

Thanks. And it looks like the full resolution version is available in a lightbox if you click the image, while a resized jpg is served as you browse the thread, so there really aren’t any bandwidth issues. The larger of the two images you included is 589KB, while a 68KB scaled version gets served as you browse the thread.
