I have images on shared server which i show in whatsapp profile style in scrollview. The images are .5 mb to 4 mb size. When i download multiple images using ftp it takes too long. I want to know what needs to be done so that batch of 20 files can be downloaded in few seconds.
As i have seen earlier maintaining a thumbnail of every image is very cumbersome.
5Mb for profile images look nonsense to me.
Resize them to a smaller size before sending to server.
Maximum 1.000 X 1.000 pixels if you need even to show them full screen.
Thanks Sagenut
Do you mean whatever be the size of original image I resize it to 1000x1000 and it will show with reasonable clarity vis a vis original image ???
I mean that 1000x1000 it's a reasonable size to have a good quality on a mobile display without zooming, showing full screen.
Consider that when displaying them in the list view like WA it would probably be enough even 400x400, as many mobile displays have 1080 width.
You have to think what you want to do with the images.
Yes i just created an image 1000x1000 png-24 in PS comes to about 165KB. I downloaded it (in no time) and saw after zooming it seems ok. I will definetly try this.
Many Thanks once again
