Now, why don't mine come in smaller in size or is it just because I am on a laptop?

Smaller size by what standard? The image is full size on my iPhone XS Max.

I’ll check on my large Enzo Mac screen later!

It may well be that in css, the img tag is set to width:100% which is fine for responsive design and making sure the image shrinks to the different devices. The problem with that setting is that it also enlarges images beyond their original size on higher resolution or larger screens, and they simply look bad then.

It would be better if the Forum style for responsive images were set to “max-width: 100%”, which allows the pic to resize to on smaller devices, but not enlarge beyond the original image pixel width.

Robert,

That interesting. Your suggestion seems spot on.

However I do need to catch up with your thinking: are these choices you can see before you in your “user options” or some you predict I should be able to find in the administration settings?

Thanks,

Asher

no. These will be settings in the css style sheet of the forum software

Thanks,

I will investigate that!

Quite strange…
I fully agree with Robert about the responsive problem that enlarge images on large screens (or Retina laptops).
So to make a trial, I download Robert's image. It is 1440 px wide.
I reduced it in CS to 500 px and posted it… no more full screen!
This should be investigated by the OPF's web dev…

 

[Chris Calohan]

So, did anyone like the image?

 

[Jerome Marot]

Yes, I like it. It is a nice idea on how to use depth of field. Moreover, the colors are very nice.

 

[nicolas claris]

As Jerome said, it is a nice idea, may be even more blur would add to the effect…

 

[Peter Dexter]

Chris my interpretation is simply that you are kept apart from the defocused fruits by the image covering mesh/ Nice idea.

 

[Jerome Marot]

I find that the blur is just right in the large version but that the small version could use a bit more. That is an effect I notice often, that the right amount of blur depends on display size.
