I had a nice "layout" (background) for myspace, it just got deleted cause of high bandwidt

It was working fine, but now, for some reason, every time I try to add a layout (background), it says "Excessive Bandwidth usage". I did not change anything. At one point it said I could replace it by using a "thumbnail" (?) that uses less bandwidth usage. As you can tell- I don't have a clue! Anyone "been there, done that"?



I had a nice "layout" (background) for myspace, it just got deleted cause of high bandwidth usage, what's that

I don't use myspace, but you would likely get the excessive bandwidth usage based on the amount of memory /space the background uses (how many KB or MB it uses)



Where was the background created? Is it a bitmap (such as MS Paint) or jpeg (such as photoshop)? jpeg uses less "space" because of the way it saves.



Also what resolution did you use (300 dot per inch, 600dpi kind of thing) higher the resolution the more memory required.



Not sure this answers you question, but hope it steers you in the right direction



When they mention thumbnail they are talking about using a smaller graphic that is then expanded to fill the "display area"



which brings up another question how big (ie 7inch x 12 inch) is the size of your original document? That will eat up space as well (depending on file type, dpi, etc)

Bandwidth refers to how much data is transferred when someone clicks on the website. Excessive bandwidth is not only related to the size of images posted, it also relates to how many times the site is visited. Report It
