Hi, I'm stumped.? Is there a setting change I can make so that when one opens a photo album the photos are automatically resized?? In other words, when a photo that is not square is uploaded to an album the entire image is not seen on the album page unless that particular file is opened.? Is there a way to be able to see entire photos by simply viewing the album rather than opening each individual picture?? Hope that makes sense...

I'm not aware of any group setting that would affect this. If you must have this behavior, your only option would be to expand the canvas of every photo to a 1:1 aspect ratio (centering the image and padding with some neutral color) before uploading. Most image editors will do this readily enough, but I've not encountered any that can automatically do it to a group of photos. You may be stuck doing them one by one.

Thanks!? I don't mind doing that for photos that I post in our artist group, but I am trying to encourage members to post photos themselves.? Understandably, they want to simply upload from their phones and I?know that most will simply not post if they have to fuss with the images first.? Just thought I'd check to be sure I wasn't missing an obvious setting.??

Maureen,

Understandably, they want to simply upload from their phones ...

Unrelated to your original question, but as you may know the images direct from phones tend to have very high resolution and require correspondingly high storage. If you haven't already, you may want to "tame" them by using the "Max Size In Photos Section" and/or "Max Size In Email" controls in the Photos section of your group's Settings page.

Thanks, looks like the max photo size settings for both are currently at 1024 x 1024.? This brings up another question - is there an easy way to calculate total data usage for the account?? I can see that there is usage info at the bottom of both the Files and Photos pages so those are easy to add up.? Are Files and Photos the only data users that count towards the account limit?
