Today we added a new screen to the web interface for hosted blogs on Micro.blog. Click “Posts” and then choose the “Uploads” tab to view your uploaded photos and microcast episodes. You can also upload new photos here to later include in a blog post.
Expect this part of Micro.blog to continue to improve. If you have any feedback, let us know. Thanks for your support!
tones looks great! I use the web interface almost exclusively and putting multiple pics in a single post has been a bit of a hassle so far.
Manton Reece @tones Thanks! I'd like to do more to make that easier (maybe checkboxes to select multiple photos to turn into a new draft).
Christopher Wilson great! This will really help. I wondered what you were eluding to when you said “were focusing on photoblogging this week”
Artur Paikin Hi, thanks again for Micro.blog, enjoing it and rooting for it! Question: any thoughts or plans on image resize/compression options with uploads? This image alexsavin.micro.blog/2018/09/1... is over 4mb, appearing at 452px wide on my timeline.
Manton Reece @arturi Wow, I'm surprised that image is so big. Did you upload it from the web or native apps? It was resized to 1800 pixels wide, but maybe not compressed enough.
Artur Paikin not me, that’s @alexsavin. ok, so there is resizing/compression in place, I was just curious how image uploads work 👌
Manton Reece @arturi Oh whoops, thank you. In a nutshell: the apps try to scale down photos a little, but big enough so they are still about 3x what the timeline shows. When I post from iOS, photos are usually about 450k.
Alex Savin Hey, I posted that pic straight from my iPhone using Icro app. Whoa I wish I didn't now :D
