A lot of people don't seem to know that a jpeg is a compressed image. I'll be interested to see whether we stop getting all the inquiries about file size in the forum. What you have written should be clear but I worry that it begins with JPEG file size of over 17.

I see no  mention of phrases, nor the use of quotes or brackets in the keywording guidelines.  I hope Alamy will clarify what is expected of us, and if there is a long term goal for the use of phrases.

It does suggest the likely compressed size for the first time. That might help.

But I think it should repeat the required size in MP.

My version would be......

 

Uncompressed file size of over 17MB. A JPEG is a compressed file so your JPEGs will likely be 3-5MB. ....

 

Then the rest stays the same. I don't like the cartoony look and would prefer something more adult and sophisticated. Ah well. Doesn't really matter.

My view is that it should simply say 6 mega pixels. It's clear and simple.
