@Gene53 – the plugin will downsample the image to fit in that size, and convert it to a JPG.
Generally, downsizing original images is a bad decision. It’s okay to downsize the images that are *displayed* to save bandwidth, but never discard your originals.
Over time, several things are a certainty:
1) Storage space will get cheaper
2) Bandwith will increase
3) Images and video from digital cameras will increase in resolution
and
4) People will consider lower-resolution media inferior.
Five years ago, 2048×1024 images were considered “huge”. But in the world of digital photography, 9600×4800 and larger images are becoming the standard. Lower resolution images are frequently considered unsalable.
Even Facebook has recently increased the size of their photo gallery images.
So feel free to play with the different cache sizes, but never delete or downsize originals.
