Margaret?

Please tell me I'm making sense?

Regardless of orientation, if you know what I mean. 2048 high for portrait images, or 2048 wide for landscape images.

No, it's 2048 for the longest edge.

Have we meandered from the original topic? When you first posted this question, you weren't talking about web images, were you?

No, this is CATASTROPHICALLY bad. 3000 is NOT Facebook size. The maximum Facebook size is 2048. This is the action to use. Delete the dangerous Tole one immediately.

The hell they were. That's no web-ready size I've ever seen. Something is badly wrong here.

Sorry, I can't answer class-related questions outside of class. PLEASE don't wait any longer, they will change your life. https://www.damiensymonds.net/training.html

That's a problem. That's REALLY small. What camera do you have?

Yep, that's the one.

Oh yes, that would work too. But trust me, Bridge makes everything much faster and easier.

Yes it does. As soon as you double-click a raw file (either in its folder on your hard drive, or in Bridge) it opens in ACR. Exactly the same as you're used to. Remember, the very first time you open a raw file in ACR in Photoshop, the default colour space will be Adobe RGB. You have to immediately click on the link at the bottom of the ACR window to fix this.

It changes your life! Download it immediately. https://www.damiensymonds.net/bridge-video

How did you go?

Well, that's vital, right? We need to know if Zenfolio is shrinking your files. So, find one one your computer that you know you uploaded. Check what its pixel dimensions are, and its file size in megabytes. Both of these stats are important. Then download that file. Check its pixel dimensions, and file size. Let me know how they compare.

Ok, and you've been uploading them to the site? And have you downloaded any of them again (as if you were a client) to see if they're still the same size?

Oh, that's easy. Just choose the Crop Tool, and enter "15in" and "11in" in the Width and Height fields of the options bar, and make sure the Resolution field remains blank. This last part is REALLY important - you must not impose a resolution. Then crop, and save the jpeg at Level 10.

These two pages seem relevant somehow: http://www.zenfolio.com/us/z/help/support-center#/customer/en/portal/articles/408314-image-resolution http://www.zenfolio.com/us/z/help/support-center#/customer/en/portal/articles/408312-display-images-sizes The first one sure does make it seem like you can upload full-resolution files.

"(max file sizes vary by plan)" Do you have more information about that?

You need to have a website which allows you to host full-resolution files. Maybe you need to pay for a pro subscription or something like that?

Phew!

That's good news. Are they all ok?

When you posted this question, I didn't realise you were talking about the same website. I assumed people would be viewing the photos on your website, and telling you which ones they'd like to order; then you would prepare those photos in high-resolution (at 11:15) and email them to them. But was I wrong about that?

Remember how you found this? The bolded part is really important. These sizes are for online presentation only. They're MUCH too small to be downloaded and printed. At this point in the thread, we were just discussing how to put your photos on your website for people to view them. At least, that's what I thought we were discussing.

Then let's start again. This is REALLY important, because it's catastrophic if you get it wrong. I'm going back to read the thread again from the start, so I can get my head straight.
