Just found this site and wanted to use it to keep my comics on, but I was told I had to resize it so that it is less then 1500 pixels

I've clicked on properties, but I can't find it under there


The picture is a jpeg image made in mspaint

It's those last two numbers. 3257 is quite a bit bigger than 1500.

On regular monitors, you really don't need your pics to be more than 1600 on ANY dimension, since that's the limit on most resolution on most monitors. Instead of reducing the size of your pics to a target number of pixels, it's probably better to reduce the whole thing by 2/3 percent on each side, therefore reducing the area to 1/9 of the original size. You get less distortion that way.

Also, middle-school level math.
