Link O'Rama Rule Changes (yipee)

WarBot · 2006-08-15, 02:29 PM

1024 x 768 is a pretty common dimension for large images, thats about 700 on the long side after resize. Hell, about 1/2 of my content sets werent even 700 on the long side when I bought em. When alot of link lists wont allow images over 80kb youre looking at alot of white backgrounds or alot of over compressed images. OR alot of smaller link lists changing their 80kb rule (also bad news for the submitters trying to make some money at this).

I think this is a very bad idea. To me, more content + larger images = less sales. With 120 seconds minimum of videos, 24 pics 700 on the long side, that doesnt leave much to the imagination or much reason for the surfer to pull out the plastic. Lots of happy surfers and bookmarkers for you, less sales for the webmasters submitting sites to you. I thought the idea was to make money, not to get the surfer off?

Just my .5 cents. I really hope that noone else adopts these new rules. I think its setting a very bad precedence.
