Rules change: longest side and file size for Contest Submission photos

[Make7]

44. Would it make sense to keep size limits for the image in the post with a link to to full size image?

For example:

[div style="text-align:center;"][div style="display:inline-block; text-align:center;"]
View original size (123 KB)

I just quickly grabbed that off a public domain photo site that had a displayed preview image with a link to a larger original (although not very large in this case).

Anyway, for the display of the photos in the post(s) there could still be a reasonable size constraint but would allow people to view/download the original size photo (or some larger sized photo with more generous size limits). As long as people put the filesize (maybe dimensions as well) in the link (or next to it) no one would be downloading very large files without choosing to do so.

To put an image in a [link:] tag, replace the period for the file extension with %2E. Like this:

[div class="excerpt" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:3px; border:1px solid #bfbfbf; border-radius:0.4615em; box-shadow:-1px -1px 3px #bfbfbf inset;"][link:http://www.public-domain-photos.com/free-stock-photos-4/travel/death-valley/death-valley-sand-dunes%2Ejpg|View original size (123 KB)]
Not sure if that is helpful, but I saw the threads about this in the ATA forum and thought I would point out some options given the constraints of image sizes in posts here.
