Artsy22 Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I have a question for anyone familiar with Shutterfly. Can you download the photos someone shares with you as high resolution images? All I can seem to figure out is how to get ones that are 72 resolution and about 600 px, even thought I know they were uploaded at high res by my friend. Do they automatically compress the images and there is no way to get the high res ones? Thanks for any help. I'm desperate here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Lakey Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Yeah, they automatically resize them when someone uploads them. Unfortunately, you can't get a high-res version of the picture. That's my understanding, at least. Anyone else know anything different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varanda Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I'll bet if you want the high res one, it'll cost you some money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManiakMama Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 No, you cannot download them as high-res. However, you can order a CD of the high-resolution photos. I think you can get 1000 photos on a CD for $40 or so. HTH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinny Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I always thought it would be a GREAT way to backup your photos. But I couldn't figure out HOW to get them back if you wanted to. Have your friend email you the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April Showers Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I have loads of photos on another site from the years I was doing film. They uploaded them , and I could print what I wanted. Sure wish I'd mad the CD's then. I've talked to the owner of the local shop that uses the service, and asked them to put them on disks for me. (I have a negative scanner, but I'd rather not have to use it.) He gave me a price per mg, and I took off everything that I'd uploaded, but they still haven't managed to get them to me..... too much stuff- bogs down their system. You're so right! Getting them back is almost impossible. I really need them to burn DVD's. I'll have to nag them again, it has been a while. Thanks for the reminder.

Guest mamadee Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 You can use a service like 4shared free file sharing and storage, the high resolution photos that are uploaded can also be downloaded at the same resolution, I use this to transfer my scrapbook LOs instead of e-mail, so that I can share them with my daughters.
