| I just looked at a few of your photos and the properties of those photos, file sizes seem to be around the same as those in my portfolio ranging from 150,000 to 500,000 bytes. Not sure what is happening for you, But would ask are you looking at the amount of space you are using or the % of space could it be 68MB used and not 68%? If not then you should submit a ticket to SC and have them take a look at it. |

I have no idea how many shots are in my portfolio, and it is at about 52% space used now. I upload general purpose pics for side challenges ect at 640 pixels wide max, and most of them 50 Kb or less in file size.
You may be able to set the file size/quality of the images when you save them for uploading. I use a mac, so it's just 3 clicks from camera to ready to upload unless I want to edit the shot before uploading. When I export from iPhoto to the upload file, I can choose the file size as well as the image size in pixels.

Portfolio space is 100 MB so 68 MB used would be 68%. |

Using 660.2mb / 2,000mb (33.01%) wow check that out. man i am sooo happy i got the 2000 extra space when i renewed tonight. now i have more space then i could ever possibly fill up. and i would ask sc about your precentage and all that, it seems off. 13 photos should certainly not be filling up that much of your profile. did you buy any extra space when you signed up/renewed? |

Are you using "Upload New Image" or "Upload New Print?"
Are you choosing your file size when you save for web?
I noticed that your photos have a "view full size" option, which is why I'm asking. It looks like your default is 800 pixels on the longest side, and I'm wondering if that's part of it. At any rate, it doesn't appear that the display window in DPC's portfolios is equipped to display something that large, so you're not getting much benefit from it. If you size them down a bit, you might recover some space that way.
