members area question
 

In your members area, what size images do you use?

pretty ones?

but what size?

1000 x 1500?
533 x 800?

I use 800 pixels for my longest height or width so no one has to scroll, although my newer pix are also prepped at 1600 for future upgrade releases.

At this point in time, I find big videos (640x480) more critical to sales and retention than any size picture.

Photos may help get some there, but the videos close the deal.

ADG Webmaster

what kind of content do you use ?

It will be pictures and videos.

Right now I am working with the pictures and trying to figure out what would be a good size to offer to members.

I will be adding video later in the week.

Most of the site I work at is a video site, so - 128x96 thumbs

ten.com

yah, are you talking about thumbnails... or the actual pictures?

sorry, the full sized actual picture, and not for galleries, but in the actual members area

I'd use a variety

full size as they came from content provider.

800 x 600 should be the absolute smallest size you use.

Usually 1024x768. :2 cents:

Thats what i use also.

1000x1500

Some of the art nude sides feature huge images with 3000 pixels or more on the longest side. At a 3:2 aspect ratio that's 6 megapixels.

Not long until they start posting their 12MP or 16MP images direct from their cameras. :)

here's 6000 pixels with a good comparison:

mmm you can see her titty peach fuzz crystal clear (sometimes you realize High def isn't always that great lol )

Ah yeah, I forgot about Hegre... he's using medium format so the resolution his camera is capable of is even higher than the 35mm stuff (I think the Canon 1DsII holds the current record for that, 16MP or about 5000px on the longest side)

The way this is going, soon you'll be able to pick out individual ingrown pubic hairs. :1orglaugh

BTW 6000 pixels at 3:2 aspect is 6000x4000 which is 24 megapixels

:thumbsup

We do three sizes, quoted longest side as sometimes the ratios change.

640, 800, 1600.

Thanks for reminding me I think it's time we increased the small and medium.

800 at older updates, now 1000 or 1200

You should offer your images in a standard size and a super size. Give members options. They like options.

And on a side note. Spend more time filling your members area with videos and not pics. Videos are way more important.

If it is some glamour babe content and exclusive I would use high res pics .. otherwise if it is some simple fucking stuff mid res pics would be fine IMO

I use 533x800 on my fhgs and the original size inside the members area! Everything from 1000+

probably offer 2 sizes, one for dial upmembers, one for broadband, amd for broadband, I would go say 1000 on both.

Images: Full size from content provider up to 1280. If bigger, I resize to 1280
Videos: HiRes 640x480 @ 1500 Kbps + LowRes 320x240 @ 150 kbps

I use 3.2 GB pictures just so the surfer takes 2 weeks to download each image. Helps for retention especially when they are downloading 20 at a time.

Good idea

You fucking copy-cat!!!:1orglaugh

320x200, saved as as GIF, because finding PCX plugins for Windows is difficult. :(

1600px on longest side but we give users an option to browse them as
1/2 of image, 1/4 of image, 640*480, 800*600, 1024*768

I show the image in the address bar as favicon.ico. 16x16 pixels ought to be enough for anybody

800*600 am I use

800 is the longest side on our pics.
but the chick/chicks take up the whole picture. there's not a lot of background. never had any complaints.

1024x768...but I'm seriously thinking about 1600x1200. I am all set to make the switch when the time comes. Couldn't imagine using 800 or less :(
