Re: To much bonking

nope not had that problem, what file size are you trying to upload? I've just looked and my last 4 uploads are between 24 / 16 mb

I don't upload from LR but use Iphoto, maybe that could be your problem, have you tried uploading differently

When I edit photos for uploading to Flickr they are reduced to 1024 pixels on the longest edge and uploaded as a j.peg if that helps ,are you also using the direct uploader supplied by Flickr I.e the black screen where you just upload via a little arrow ,mine upload in nano seconds

Same here, but I also resize everything to 1024 on the long side. I wouldn't risk putting a high-res image on Flickr for Public viewing.

Re: To much bonking

Well I never resize anything before uploading but do export them directly from LR in .jpeg format to my Mac and then upload them from there to Flickr

I just drag the dng file after editing and it uploads automatically in lightroom. Ive not changed any sizing options from the defsult set up.

Re: To much bonking

this is possibly where your losing image quality ,as flickr by default re-sizes them for you to 1024 on the longest edge ,in doing so you lose that i.q

Re: To much bonking

Thanks to all who have replied,it seem most do it slightly different, I upload by dragging thee Jpeg image into Flickr from Photoshop, no had a problem in the past, maybe they were just busy,
Russell does have a point I have seen some of my imaged used elsewhere

I was also having trouble uploading yesterday, then it worked...perhaps a server issue their end?
