    jim i know we are suppose to upload the pic here, but i've noticed that posting here compared to photobucket totally dulls the colors out. The top pic is posted from captivereefs hosting.

    wow good eye, it must be something to do with the compression used when we upload here.

    Interesting...probably is the resizing/compression. What size/resolution was the pic before you uploaded?

    The reason I have the pics uploaded here is so we can display them on the home page. It also helps get members more familiar with the site and where things are/how to do stuff. For newer members the albums can be helpful so they don't have to go to another site (photobucket, etc.) to create an account to post pics here.

    I'd recommend for everyone to retain the larger resolution original of their photo. That way if you win or we decided to use them for header images, etc. I can get the better version to work with.

    If you see any pics that I have taken that you're interested in LMK, I'll find a full resolution copy for you.
