[QUOTE="johnwartjr, post: 8366, member: 2176"] Typically, you won't want to make the files super big to post them online - if the people who want to critique your shots have to download a 10+ MB file to critique it, a lot of them will say no thanks and move on. If you're going to post them here for critique, since the size limit is 800x600, tell LR3 to resize to fit the long edge, and set it to 800 pixels, and maybe 100 pixels per inch. Then, it will scale the other dimension down to something appropriate. Your RAW file is your original copy, you would export it to jpg (or another format, depending on what you're doing with it) and would size it appropriately for what you're doing with it. The RAW file itself is the large file that stays intact so you can go back to it, later on. A file for critiquing should be maybe 500KB, doesn't need to be super huge. [/QUOTE]
