Hi, hopefully someone can help with this...I'm uploading some pictues to use with a new template but they keep on getting resized once they are uploaded..is their a size limit in terms of pixels or mb in the image hosting?

I'm almost certain the answer is Yes to max on Pixels.
Example: I have a 1496W x 1122H shot (unedited) taken at 1.7MP with my Kodak that was resized to around 1023W x 767H after upload. That seems to be standard for my Landscape shots. My Portrait shots seem to max around 768H x 575W
I do recall someone else posting some exact info on the issue in the past. You might search around the Forum.

More: I did some more looking and testing and my best guess at the resize limits are maximum of 1024p Wide and 768p High. I had a 6.1MP shot that was cropped to nearly square and the upload was resized almost exactly 768x768. None of the pictures in my library exceed either of those two restrictions, despite many being (originally) 6.1MP full or cropped images.

Hi renaissance_auctions, ~~ I know your post is a couple days old, and perhaps already resolved...
But I'll respond here now.. for the benefit of others as well....
Yes there can be problems in certain specific situations (as posted elsewhere before) relating to high-density photos or those exceeding certain size limits or formats. The following link to the FAQ's (under images) gives the info which follows as a starting point to begin with:
http://www.auctiva.com/free-auction-software-help/help.aspx#maximum-image-size
Our image uploaders will resize all images larger than 1MB. We also restrict the dimension size to 1024x768 and convert images to JPG format after the upload process. Because of this, it is possible that even if your image was smaller than 1MB, it could end up with an even smaller file size once it’s in on our servers.
You, [or anyone else] can also search the boards here (very much encouraged) using the 'find' tab with keywords such as 'photo size', 'image size', or any other terms which reflect the issue you're having (or might have in the future). This will almost always provide you with previous questions-and-answer threads already posted, providing an invaluable (and immediate) tool for extracting solutions for your own needs. ~Zeb
