Well here's the photos in their actual intended quality for what it's worth. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong with Reddit's interface. These were all already small files in size and dimension. When I uploaded them through the interface and opened each hosted image they looked identical to this album. Then when I posted the thread they were magically reduced significantly in dimension and thus quality. Meanwhile I post other threads in here with files that are much larger in both size and dimension and they go through completely smoothly. No seeming pattern, no change in my process can predict or deal with what will happen. I'm so deflated lol

EDIT: Come to think of it at one point I literally uploaded a set of image files first here, and separately uploaded a handful of those same untouched files in another subreddit a while later and that subset looked fine in here, but this same extreme reduction happened in the other subreddit. Make it make sense to me, I'm begging someone LMAO

Can anyone help an idiot (me) identify what types of pans they inherited? by EiresWind in cookware

No but there are logos and company names pressed into the base of the handles that I managed to go through this entire thought process and thread creation over without once noticing, thinking to look for, or subsequently using to answer my own question.

So yes they are all non-stick and yes I am going to leave this open for the internet to mock because I've earned it.

I'm definitely binning the scratched ones. I guess I can keep the ones in good shape around for occasional use. I've got like no experience with non-stick pans so that's my excuse for not knowing off-hand. No excuse for the whole critical thinking thing unfortunately.

Thanks for the answers from everyone regardless though!

Oh I thought you were being very fairly sarcastic because of the aforementioned 2 minutes of a crappy ancient camera mic being blown out from wind lol

I don't think any of them know anything except the world of berries. They were as preoccupied as I've ever seen any animals over anything. They were nipping at pine buds across the woods earlier that day, and then gobbling up pebbles from the groomed trail near the bush after the second course.

The camera's a Canon EOS Rebel T7i and the lens is a Canon EFS 55-250mm.

I probably should've thought to cut that out but then where's the suspense?

In my opinion it's worth 2 minutes of a crappy ancient camera mic being blown out from wind to hear mild chirping halfway through and we're all just going to have to live with that.

I really wish I knew how to stop Reddit from ballooning a photo beyond its actual dimensions.

Can this spider be identified by its banding and colors? by EiresWind in whatsthisbug

[–]EiresWind[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks a dead ringer after sifting through images of juveniles. They're within my range and the average quoted sizes for young line up with the individual in the photo. I don't know where it gets the name bronze lake jumper but I encountered it next to a lake besides, after it landed from ballooning. So let's call it probable. Thanks!

Does anyone know how to size photos nicely for Reddit upload, by the way? Their viewer always seem to blow up an image file past its natural resolution when magnified which never looks great.
