Droid X Pic help...

KSGregman · 10-05-2010, 12:36 PM

OK....I shot a bunch of pics while in Arkansas...they look fantastic on the phone....look like shit when I transfer them off the phone. Picture resolution is set to large (8 MP)....take them off the phone via upload to Photobucket or email and the resolution is crap.

Anyone know how to work around this?

What about when you transfer them to PC via cable?

Also, the Photobucket app has an option for High Res.

What about emailing them to yourself or another account?

When you upload to photobucket, it does something to them. They never look right after uploading.

I have 8X10 pictures framed that were taken with my Droid1 and they look awesome.

I notice this too. Must be something with photobucket.

Try the cable or email suggestion and let us know if that works.

E-mail = FAIL. Lost the resolution that way too.

I'm messing with the Photobucket app right now....looking for an option to upload it in high res....no love so far. :/

Strange, here's a wallpaper I downloaded that Photobucket then uploaded....still looks good...

Looks like a cable for the win then.

Just transferred all my pictures from the Droid to my PC using the USB cable....all the pictures taken at standard zoom are perfect. All the pictures taken using any kind of zoom on the camera are rubbish. :/

All of the pictures were taken at the large (8 MP) setting....no clue why they are shit like this....they look perfect on the camera. *shrug*
