Both "Imagus" and "jDownloader" don't work anymore for images on 500px, but I expect jDownloader to update their software at some point to address that issue... Can you tell me when either one gets to work again? Sucks for your account though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked this and it only gives a low res link, this really sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie's Alter Ego Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I remember tumblr limiting upload size and downsizing every single image that has been uploaded prior to their update, maybe 500px did something similar and 2000 pixel is now the maximum width.

LoganJ Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 It seems like 500px now checks your screen resolution and sends you an image which is a little larger than your Monitor resolution, resized in realtime. Did anyone check the "new" 500px already with a 4k (3.840 x 2.160 pixels) Monitor or with a virtual Desktop at that size? With my Monitor at 1280 x 1024 I get a max. image resolution of 1500 x 1000 with that "test-image" (I wasn't logged in). Imagus at Opera still works, but as the pages are no more static, it can only provide that 1500 x 1000 pixels. This change can reduce their traffic by approx. 20-30% which should be the reason why they did this change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I'll have to spoof the res', only my tv is 4k. p.s.: I think you meant reduce bandwidth, but yah, sounds logical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bandwidth is the speed and the amount of data the server can send within one second and is divided by the number of active users on the site. Traffic is the amount of data which is sent within a specific time. As the file-size is reduced, the traffic will be reduced and with the same Bandwidth as before, more users can get served at the same time. On the other hand, the short lag of realtime resizing is partly compensated by faster loading (less data) for users with lower screen resolution.

I don't know if bandwidth is the correct term I used since yes, I know bandwidth (in all other senses and in home connections) is the amount per X time, such as volts vs amperage. I forget the word or maybe I used that word, every time I've coded websites or backends on servers, the hosting said bandwidth (or another word that I forget) as amount of data that can be served over a monthly invoice, thus my (maybe) confusion. I somehow always attributed traffic as unique users, maybe I was wrong. My reasoning, which I never apparently questioned post-2000's, was that the more unique visitors, the more bandwidth used.
