Why are all my images pixelated

i am using iWeb as a site for my photography, but when using iPhoto to import the photos (so they can be clicked on and seen larger) the larger photos in the slide show look pixelated. It is more noticable on images with peoples faces, but it does show up on all. I know it isn't an issue of too small file size since I have specificly made sure they are around 5x7 @72 dpi.
Could it be because I am publishing to a folder so that I can use my own domain name and I don't have the .mac subscription?
I have seen other people's iWeb sites too, that show just the image in the slideshow instead of the big ugly white boarder around the images. How can I do that?
For example my website is www.rebeccaellison.com
I saw someone else on this forum whose site I really like and doesn't have the issues I am describing. THat site is www.chrisgibbs.com (I hope he doesn't mind me using his site as an example...)
Please help.
iBook g4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

mybelbo:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What are the pixel dimensions of the large renditions of the photos? 7x5 @ 72 would give you 502 pixels x 360 pixels which is a lot smaller that what iWeb creates by default. iWeb, by default, produces 800 pixel x 600 pixel images as the large sized images. So if you don't pre-resize the images before adding to the iWeb page you'll get the 800 x 600 sized images.
Can you give is the URL to you site so we can view the issue?
Do you Twango?

  • Why are my duotone images turning black and white when put in indesign?

    why are my duotone images turning black and white when put in indesign?
    I have been playing duo and montotone images into indesing with no trouble. Then all of a sudden as I placew them they go black and whitre. I have tried everything from re saving, re making in photoshop and differant colours et5c. But nothing seems to wrok. The images already in my document arew fine it is just new ones. If someone could help that would be great

    Can you start a new document and then load one of the duotones known to be good in the working file and have it correct? If so, try one of the duotones known to be bad in the working document in the new file. Does it work?
    If no to either suggestion, can you share one of the images known to be good and one known to be bad? ZIP 'em up and upload to dropbox and plop a link here. Or, to keep the file sizes down, you can quickly make a new set and provide those.
    As well, the ID version and OS info would probably be helpful.
    Take care, Mike

  • Why are my Illustrator images getting thicker strokes when I take the bounding box and make them smaller?

    Why are my Illustrator images getting thicker strokes when I take the bounding box and make them smaller? This has never happened to me. I'm not an expert at Illustrator, but I do know some fundamentals.

    Thank you for responding so quickly. No apologies necessary - I know this Forum isn't McDonalds - don't expect an answer to be served up right away. You helped me out with a big issue yesterday.
    I am using a mac - OSX 10.7.5
    I have Adobe Creative Suites - CS5 - Illustrator version is 15.0.2
    The contents I am placing are all  Vector - Illustrator files
    But, I wonder about some of the vector files I work with.  Could a "line weight/thickness" be 'assigned' to the drawing and screw things up? I used 'simple' linear (line) drawings from SolidWorks that have been converted to ai files. It's just weird because I checked the stroke of the drawing and it's not out of line.
    I am attaching part of some box labels. You can see how the drawings, of the products, on the 'left side' are "thick" after embedding them. I think the "Global Logo" was pasted into a template not linked that's why it's okay. But look at the Quiet Thunder logo - it looks terrible. These labels are only 2.25" X 6.5", so its important I keep the images lightweight. 
    Your help is very much appreciated. Thank you!

  • In iTunes under my device, under the apps tab, Why are all the options shaded out?  I cannot make any changes, select any apps or do anything with the apps.  I was able to load a few apps and sync but cannot sync anymore to my phone.

    Hi,
    ( I search for iChat questions when I have finished in the iChat Forum)
    So the menu bar reads iChat, File,  Edit,  View, Buddies, Video, Window and Help
    There is no Buddy List open.
    There is no other window for iChat open.
    In the iChat Menu you only have access to Status.
    Is an item ticked in the list ?
    Is this a green (Available item) or  Red ( an Away one) ?
    Can you access the Accounts option ?  (Sitll in the iChat Menu)
    Is anything in here ticked ?
    In the Window menu any Logged in account should appear in the list  (Between the Next Chat and File Transfer items)
    It would be useful to know which version of iChat this is.
    If no account is ticked (iChat Menu > Accounts) or not showing in the Window Menu, plus you cannot determine the Status and you cannot access the Preferences then you need to access your Home Folder/Library/Preferences
    As the Library in the Home Holder is Invisible in Lion you will need the Finder's Go Menu > Go to Folder option  (you can use it in earlier OS versions if you want)
    Type in:-
    ~/Library/Preferences
    Find the file called com.apple.ichat.plist
    Drag it to the Trash and Restart iChat.
    This will lose all the settings in iChat that you have changed from Defaults but there is no way around this.

  • Why are all my movies and tv shows now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  How can i get rid of them?

    Why are all my movies and tv shows from my library now on my ipad with the icloud icon?  I have turned off all icloud related services. I have never used it.  On top of that, my ipad now gets stuck on step 5 of the sync - waiting for changes to be applied and never finishes.
    Help

    Hi, go in Settings, under Videos turn off "Show all videos"  this will remove the purchased videos to be displayed in the Video app.  The same can be done with the music.
    As for Step 5, connect you iPad and on the summary Tab, uncheck
    "Sync only checked songs and videos".  Then wait, it takes a while but this made it work for me after many restore attempts.
    good luck

  • Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver?   The same images look fine in Preview and Finder.  Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

    Why are some jpg images scrambled when they appear in my screen saver?   The same images look fine in Preview and Finder.  Some images appear scrambled in the screen saver 'preview' window and the actual screen saver. Other jpg images look fine.

    The desktop image is fine, taken from the exact same pool of jpg photos.  However, as soon as the slide show screen saver comes on, the images are scrambled.  What is it about the apple screen saver algorithm that scrambles the pics?

  • Why are all paths in Clipping Masks and Compound Paths?

    When I open up previous versions of Illustrator files (i.e. CS5), why are all of my paths messed up. Every object is embedded in a Clipping Mask, paths are compounded and in most cases type on a path is expanded into multiple non-editable objects. This causes complete redesign. This is terrible.

    Because Illustrator accessed the PDF part of the file.
    ---> this points to corrupt files.
    How were those files transferred to your computer? Are they on a server?
    How old are they?
    Which versions were they created in?
    Did you already try to restart (the computer)?
    Any plugins installed?

  • HT5557 Why are all my books that I have purchased no longer in my library?

    Why are all my books that I have purchased no longer in my library?

    The problem is, if I'm in an area that I don't have service or Wi-Fi and I want to read a book that I have purchased and paid for and I can't retrieve it...it is extremely annoying. I have paid A LOT of money for MANY MANY ebooks.  I HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED THE NEW 7.0 SYSTEM BECAUSE I DO NOT LIKE IT. I HAVE IT ON MY IPHONE AND IT HAS TOTALLY SCREWED UP MY CALENDAR AND A FEW OTHER APPS.  I DID NOT WANT THE CHANGES ON THE IPAD TOO.  In other words, I have done nothing different.  My Kindle app is working great and has twice to five times more e-books in it.  The sad part is that iBooks charges more and does not get the new releases out as well and timely as Amazon.  I use Amazon more often now but I do like to keep my series together and for that reason I of still use them occasionally. 

  • Why are all my contacts suddenly 2 hours earlier than they were entered.  I just noticed this today April 24

    Why are all my entries on Icloud 2 hours earlier than they were previously entered.  I just noticed this today April 23?  They do not match what is on my Ipad or on my imac.  Looks like the clocks are not syncronised someplace.

    Your post is fascinating because your post header says "today April 24" while your post body says "today April 23"   So maybe that is related...
    Anyway, make sure all your iCloud devices have Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically = "On".
    Also, in iCloud.com, open Calendar, go to Preferences (upper right) > Advanced > and check "Enable Time Zone Support".

  • Why are all of my contacts duplicated on my iPhone/ipad with iCloud?

    Why are all of my contacts duplicated on my iphone and ipad when using icloud?

    One way this happens is when you previously synced contacts via iTunes/USB cable.  If you haven't turned that off in iTunes, then you'll get duplicates from iTunes and iCloud.
