do not confuse this resolution value (e.g. megapixel 3, 4 or more) with the one of your monitor (800x600,
1024x768 pixels). When you take a digital picture, your camera saves it according to its setup. Once you
download these photos to your PC you need to resize them to the value you want to use in the layout.

With a image editing software you can resize all the picture to the proper size. Size also means kilobytes to
download for the client. We suggest to use images not bigger than 40~50 Kb. Of course if you have a fast
connection you may exceed this value. File format supported are: JPG and GIF. We strongly suggest to use
JPG due to its better compression factor. As an example you can refer to the following table chart:
Example Table 2
File Resolution
Compression ratio
File Size
800 x 600 (outdoor image) 45% 64Kb
800 x 600 (outdoor image) 65% 44Kb
1024 x 768 (outdoor image) 45% 98Kb
1024 x 768 (outdoor image) 65% 67Kb
Actual file size, if you use JPG compression, depends on the picture you are compressing. Different pictures
with same compression ratio and same file resolution, may have different file size.
