jcc31 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 What would be a good image format that I can use with a contianer field. I want a small image in size but yet I would like to see a good quality image. I'll have hundreds of images for inventory reasons. I'll be using my laptop that has a 40GB drive.

comment Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Not really a Filemaker question - Filemaker doesn't care much what you put in a container field. Anyway, if your images are photos of real things (as opposed to computer-generated graphics), then use the .jpg format. The quality of the image depends on the settings you apply during conversion - and conversely, so does the size of the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Taylor Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hi Comment ... i think judging by jcc31 profile he is using v6 so this could be an issue as the file size limit is 2gb Before continuing... jcc31 are you using version 6 or 7 and above there is a huge difference and i would advise upgrading now before continuing your project as the life expectency for 6 is growing shorter by the operating system release.

jcc31 Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 actually, I'm using 5.5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 You can insert the images as reference only - so the only effective limit will be the available space on your hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
