Why is it that the image is beautiful and crisp on my computer, but when I post it, it looks terrible? Not always, but most of the time. Is it me? Is it AOL?

I don't see any problems here. Image looks fine to me. I haven't experienced this myself. I know some sites have auto-compression software for image uploads, but I've never seen this happen here. I'm at a loss.

Its AOL. Look under your preferences..there will be soething called compress graphics checked by default..uncheck it. I had this problem with AOl before

AOL itself does have image compression built in. Attached is a link to DigitalBlasphemy.com, where Ryan explains this problem in detail. Hope this helps!

WOW, what a difference a browser makes. Looks awful on AOL. I had stayed away from IE because I was told it spies on you while you are connected. I'll have to check out Netscape. I don't think they spy. Thanks guys. By the way, what do you think of my first character texture?

IE does not spy on you.

IE doesn't have spyware, and Netscape loves to crash and give problems. After trying 6 and having it completely hose Windows, I've stayed away from it. We also have Netscape 4.something at work and I hate it. It's IE all the way, and I can't stand Microsoft. :/ Netscape used to be good....

AOL defaults to compressed graphics (compuserve too BTW) fix this by going to your preferences - internet properties

choose web graphics and set to "never compress graphics"

Thanks you guys! I was wondering the same thing myself...hopefully this will solve the problem. Every day I find something else to love about this place!
