Testing 1, 2, 3, 4

Your Response Is Requested!  When I create these daily emails I have have to insert the images as thumbnails at 300 X 300 pixels (scaled down on one side).  Anything larger really screws up the email format.

You’ve probably noticed the statement “If viewing on a device bigger than a phone CLICKING HERE takes you to a page with larger text and pics” right below the standard header image in every email.  If you do click that link on your phone you will see slightly larger text and images.  The main advantage of the CLICKING HERE link can be best observed on a tablet, laptop, or computer monitor; when using these devices, the images are much larger.  But which are they the best sizes for your device?  That’s where I need your feedback.

Below are four images of an immature Mourning Warbler I recently took, each displayed in a different size (in the email they will look the same size!)  Open the email using your tablet, laptop, or computer and click on the CLICKING HERE link beneath the image of the Baltimore Oriole.  This will take you to the blog page for this email where you will see the same four images, but each one should be a different size.

Please reply to this email or add to the comments section of the blog post which of these images look the best.  In particular, look at the quality of each image (this one has pretty good sharpness in it so you should be able to see in the feathers).  Comments about the quality and size for your display are needed for me to use the correct number of pixels to share images in the future.  If more than one of them look good, just let me know which ones but be sure to say which one looks best.   Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me out.

Remember: These will all look the same in your morning email.  Click the link at the top of the Title to see the different sizes on your device.

 

1) 300 X 300

3) 1024 X 683

 

4) 2048 X 1365

I’m not savvy enough to notice differences between #3 & #4. They both seem best.

#4. The top of the head looks sharper.
