Will Flicker free account 1000 images max allow external hosting ?
When re-sizing an image for web publication you want to produce a size that is going to be right for most people and importantly for those who use hi res screens. A number of years ago 800 pixels on the long side would have been suitable. Today that is not the case, anyone viewing on a hi res screen sees a 800pixel image as little more than a thumbnail.
I produce images 2158*1440 as that is the tall resolution of my screen and will account for most folk using a hi-res monitor. Although with the advent of 4k screens that may well be changing again.

I am going to hijack your introductory post and yet again make the point that the image size restrictions on this site are hopeless.
John knows my views as I have made them for a number of years. if you view images on a dedicated desk-top screen rather than a tablet or phone, 1000 pixels wide is hopeless. Your image posted takes up less than a third of the width of my screen. I can see no detail in it.
You will do better to post the image as a link to an external hosting site like Flickr. Then those who do wish to view the image at a sensible size can do so.

Hauntingly beautiful.
An interesting point made on the information board nearby is that the alkaline nature of cement has meant that the entire structure is now colonised by lichen. Found nowhere else on the very acidic common.

hi pschlute, without sounding naive would that image you produce at 2158 x1440 be the size you would have in your hosting site link for others to view and you would upload that size to the host after editing an so on
