I'm just curious to know....

IF some photos are uploaded at 72 DPI and others are uploaded at 300 DPI?
How does this affect someone wanting to order a photo in the print ordering system on Smugmug?

Another question: when a customer orders a digital download it reads (sizes)

1 mp for low res
4 mp for high res
____ for original

Why is a size listed for 1 mp & 4 mp by not original? The answer is probably obvious but, I've been awake since WAY too early this morning....
so enlighten me, please.


Thanks,
Markjay

    Mark, all your photos are uploaded at your original file size. We make display copies, as follows:

    http://www.smugmug.com/help/display-quality
    All prints are ordered and made from your original files.
    Your sRGB original files are never changed.

    Original Size dig downloads can be any size you wish. If your original was .5 megapixel, then you'd sell that as only Originals.

    Converted color spaces?
    I forgot to ask you......

    if the color space on the image that is uploaded is RGB, does Smug convert to SRGB or, will the images be displayed as they are... as RGB colorspace viewing files / colors?

    We only convert aRGB, CMYK and Prophoto to sRGB.
