You're right in that resolution, given identical file sizes, is not relevant. That's why I said it was "not necessarily true". However, the OP was, from my experience, having issues with overall file size, of which resolution is part. If you look back at the OP , you'll see that he referenced printing at 360 ppi and that, at the resolution, everything looked great in a print. In this case, your response saying that "Pixel resolution is irrelevant" is misleading as it indicates that a change in ppi would be irrelevant. However, if he had resampled to 72ppi, he would have seen much better results as the overall file size would have been much closer to that allowed by the host gallery.
THAT was my point.
FYI: the RF-Photography link on you footer is addressed incorrectly. There is a dash after the WWW rather than the required period. Just thought you'd like to know.
