"Download in High Resolution"
Yay. God bless Zuckerburg, and his quest to completely destroy any right one has to privacy. Make it easy to steal images. Take what I want to share with my family, and make it open for anyone to download. From profile photos, to my business groups, to photos of my kids I share with family back home. FUCK YOU, facebook. I'm done. As of tomorrow, I'm cancelling my accounts. This is bullshit. Oct 10 10 02:41 am Link Some stuff fb has pulled is pretty up there in the bullshit arena, but as far as pics go, I just load small images so no one can get a decent print over a 4x6. No muss no fuss. Good enough quality viewed at 100% to see that the image is well done but if you even go to 200% the pixelation is staring you right in the face.

Oct 10 10 03:33 am Link The new uploading tools, which have gradually been improved with more advanced Flash technology, will give Facebook members the option to upload a photo in 2048-pixel resolution and offer their friends the chance to download them. "It's enough pixels to print out a 5x7 print at 300 DPI," Odio explained. Then, when they've uploaded them, they'll be able to tag their friends in them in bulk rather than individually. simmah down meow!

Nothing I upload is any higher than 72dpi and really of no use to anyone since most is family oriented and if found to be used by someone else leaves them open to law suit for using an image with a model release. I'm one of those people who carry my lawyers card in my wallet! Oct 10 10 04:19 am Link ??? Don't upload big images and then nobody can download big images. What did you think, Facebook is going to magically create these pictures out of thin air? They're only providing what people willingly give to them. Don't give them high res and then nobody can download high res.

Oct 10 10 08:03 am Link Let's recap people: As a rule of thumb - do not put anything online that you do not want people to download ha hahahaa!
