Photography Question

upload problem


I usually upload 720px (along the longer dimension) to my premium gallery. I save all images in the best jpeg resolution.
now for some images, after uploading them I see loss in quality ( I see bands in plain blue sky of the image). I dont see them otherwise (i mean when I view them on my computer, and not through betterphoto) I tried different image viewers, none of them show this.
i am wondering whether I should process images differently for betterphoto? or am I being plain dumb?

  I have had problems with the appearance of blue skys before also. Sometimes I will just re-upload my image again and sometimes I have to upload as a tif file. I resize my images to 480X720.

  Could you link to an example? What you generally want to do is size the short end to 480px with 100% JPEG, or PNG or TIFF. You can edit this image to your liking, just make sure that you don't go below in 100% jpeg. If the file is sized like this, BP won't change it upon upload.

  Hmm, I've never seen that before. Maybe you could try uploading in tiff. Or maybe you could try a different upload method?
