1. So it sounds like you get the luck of the draw. I guess I’ve been really lucky so far.

   • Barbara, I think they let photos of 72 dpi slide but any graphic image may require to be 300 dpi for clarity?

2. That’s strange. I don’t think any of my images have been 300 dpi. They are probably closer to 72, which is the recommended size for most online use. I use 300 dpi for images that will actually be printed. I usually publish images that are close to 800 x 600 pixels. So far nothing has been rejected.

   • Barbara this is odd as I submitted 72 DPI images and they were rejected with notes saying they did not meet requirements and when I asked what resolution they needed to be I was told 300 DPI. But then as with any site, the rules are interpreted differently by each editor, your editor may see nothing blurred with your images so is fine with them, whereas my editor wasn’t happy with the image I was using so rejected it. It’s as simple as that. I Did as when I was talking with the editors and they prefer 300 dpi images. I’ve submitted images here to one editor and had it rejected, waited a day resubmitted the same post unaltered and a different editor looked at it an approved the post. so its all up to the editors, the first one rejected the post due to poor image quality, even though they exceeded the sites minimums and were clear. Editors are people too and we don’t know their thoughts when they’re looking at our posts.

3. It would be good to know how to do it if images don’t meet that minimum standard. If you can to explain it?

   • Sometimes the program accepts unacceptable quality images that are then returned to drafts folder, but if they exceed the maximum size they won’t load.
