The photo portfolio submittal guidlines says that images must be limited to 640 pixels on the long side and 200 kb file size. Is this correct? Is it not possible to load the same images files to our photo portfolio as we submit the the image critique galleries here at NPN without having them automatically resized?

Buck, I think there was recent discussion on this with regard to making the portfolio size the same as the gallery images at the new 300 kb overall file size. I'm not sure that has been done yet, or if it is still in the planning state. However, the long side to my knowledge is already at the 720 size and has been that way for quite sometime, at least my best recollection. You might try uploading an image @ 720 x 300 kb to see what happens. :cool:

I'm re-doing a lot of images in mine and uploading smaller versions that I've posted on NPN (720, under 200kb) and it works just fine...

I uploaded a 720 x 480 pixel image. It appears not to have been re-sized. I didn't test the file size - most of my 720 pixel pictures are well below 200 kb.

How time flies. I hadn't updated my portfolio for more than two years.
