Picture size is much smaller when downloading it from the site?
I uploaded pictures 2400 pixels high, but when downloaded from Dropbox they are only 860 pixels high.
Hi guys!
Dropbox uploads your photos in full resolution. However, when photos are previewed in an app or webview, we show you a scaled down version for faster loading. If you’d like to view your photos in full resolution, I would recommend downloading the photo using the Dropbox client or using the download button.
Hi Kaz and all you other Dropbox Brainiacs out there!
I'm in the same boat as these other guys and don't understand your resolution you put forth yet.
I have the Dropbox iOS. When I 'Save Image' on an 7 meg file it appears in my Camera Roll on my phone - fine. But if I were to immediately email that same file back to myself it is now showing as 2.1 megs. The file that is now on Dropbox is unprintable at that resolution.
However, if I were to email it to myself from Dropbox, 'Save Image', and email it back to myself it remains at the original size of 7 megs. So there is a way around this but it's a pain in the ass. Any suggestions on how to fix it so it just uploads and downloads the full file?
Thanks so much!
