If this were the case, the compressed image would still look poorly when copied and pasted into an application such as photoshop. |
I just noticed something. The image itself is 512 x 640 pixels. When I view it at 'actual size' (100%) in another application, it is smaller on the screen. It appears that the one that displays here is larger by 25% or so. I didn't notice that before.
The image that I uploaded is sized: 512 x 640.
If I do a screen capture, Alt-PrintScrn, and paste that into a new Photoshop document, the image size is 640 x 800.
So, it appears that either my IE is makeing the picture larger than it should be, or the DPC script (challenge_submit_readimage.php) is making it show larger, somehow. I don't see anyting in the HTML source that would do this.
Can someone else verify if this is what normally happens? I don't think something like that is a setting on IE unless maybe it has something to do with setting for Windows tat relate to people with poor vision.
