Hi, Monitors cannot display above 72 dpi The files you are creating are fairly large and would download slowly (unless the pictures are tiny). Depending on the actual filesize they may be compressed further by AW, if you right click on them as they are displayed in your auction choose properties and compare the size of the image to your original. The first thing I would address is the dpi setting lower it to 72 you'll get a smaller filesize that appears the same visually and loads quicker. The other source of your problem may be your Photo Editing Software and the compression algorhythym used, Adobe PhotoShop sets the benchmark all others fall somewhere below.

Hello,
We do not compress or alter your images in any way. They should appear exactly as they do on your end. The exception for this is usually AOL/CS users connecting via the AOL/CS cobranded browser, which by default uses compressed graphics. If you are on either of these ISP's, turn your compressed graphics off and refresh the page - the images should then appear as they do when viewing outside of the AOL/CS browser.
