Polarized Painkillers

I'm not sure what these crystals are unfortunately. I'm sure it was a preparation of either Advil, Tylenol or another type painkiller but here it is.

Unfortunately due to size limitations I cannot get a better image. If possible could anyone redirect me on how one can upload images that aren't limited by the upload restriction?

Really funky colours! I love it! It almost looks like feathers!

What program are you using to resize your images? and what size are the images coming out of your camera?

I use photoshop but heres what i do to get the biggest and highest quality image possible...

I resize the image so that either the height or width is 1024pixels, usually the width as thats my biggest value. That's the maximum pixel size the forum will let you upload. I then save the image as a jpeg and when selecting the quality i ensure the file size does not exceed 500kb as the maximum is 512kb.

Alternatively you can upload your images at full res to an image hosting website such as flickr and then post the link!

Hope this helps!
