I was so pleasantly surprised to see Sabrina Carpenter on US Vogue's March 2025 issue by Meisel. Who knew that this would be their last March issue before the publishing change. I really like your fold-out version and color palette.

I have noticed that the tFS website is converting good resolution .jpg's (like the cover mockup above) into blurry (lower resolution) images. Does anyone know why? I created and uploaded the .jpg as I always do and I see a major difference in quality.

My browser is Safari on iPhone, and Chrome on PC. Using dark mode. Hopefully we can get more answers from tech as to where exactly the issue may be stemming from tomorrow.

In better news, we’ve made it so that all images on the forums automatically resize to thumbnail size when they’re being uploaded as attachments on the forums. Feel free to let me know if you think the current sizing is a bit too small… and I’ll happily adjust.

Maybe I've messed up some PS settings but I don't understand why my entries appear so small 🫤

 

[callmejaeden]

I believe the issue that everyone is having is that TFS now automatically converts images shared via url (or uploaded?) to thumbnail sizing and no longer to the full image size.

attachments are now automatically resized to thumbnail size
