what is the best format and resolution for digital art on facebook? - harpo - 04-15-2013 09:03 PM
i've started adding some of my art onto facebook but it keeps turning out really grainy and bad quality
i've tried saving in jpeg and png, from different programs but it always turns out the same
i can't find any high-quality check boxes?
okay yeah found the check box but it's not changing anything
:c
yeah i use tumblr haha
just wanted to show my friends
bit of a let down
haha the picture is actually perfect quality, daniel, mate i've looked at it through four different image viewers, not grainy or bad quality at all

that's because facebook converts all pictures to JPG format even if you save them in PNG format
however, facebook has a "high quality" checkbox for the album you are uploading your pictures into, so make sure that is checked before you publish the album
it's at the bottom of the page when you create a new album - here... i'll screenshot it for you

if it doesnt change anything, then there is nothing else you can do - stop using facebook as an image hosting site... use a site like photobucket.com instead which supports large high quality images

If its Not Coming Out Right Than Something is Wrong With the Picture The Picture it Self is Probably Not Good Quality if its not uploading in Good Quality
