Facebook pic posting compressing??

---

has anyone tried posting pics via the Photo Album > Sharing > Facebook method?

I did it yesterday with some pics from the pool. went to check my facebook on the computer later on that evening and noticed a loss in quality....you can notice a transparent "patchwork" also known as "artifacts" (i think). happens from the JPEG compression method.
well unhappy with how it looked i deleted the pics and reuploaded the same photos directly off the SD Card through the facebook website on my computer. the pictures are definitely a lot clearer and better in quality. i would say there's a good 15-20% difference in quality.

i have yet to try it directly through the facebook app.
any way to switch this compression method off via a rooted phone? i would like my pics to show up on my facebook as i see them on my phone...not compressed and clear.

Just a thought...

Maybe this has to do with how it sends them. If it is sending them via MMS to facebook, the size limit is 600k so it would have to compress.

If you could upload them to facebook via Email I bet that would work but, I forget if you can upload to facebook via email. Seems plausible.

You can but you have no control of what album its placed in. It's automatically sent to the Mobile photos album. I have a feeling ATT or HTC has it set to compress files to save on data usage. The pics I uploaded were only about 120kb each.

Hmmm no idea then. Sorry!
