The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

What determines image quality?

Asked by tcengineer in Web Images, Images & Photo Software, Program Quality Control

Ok....I've read "most" of the image quality questions and either I've missed the answer or it's not there.

I thought I new what determined image quality (e.g. non-pixelation, correct coloring, etc.) but alas I don't think I do.

I used to think resolution (dpi) was at the heart of image quality. The higher the dpi, the better the quality. I was apparently proven wrong when I displayed an image with a dpi of 72 and another with a dpi of 96 and the 96 dpi image was terrible, whereas the 72 dpi image was crisp.

I'm working on a site that allows users to upload images which will go into a publication. I can resize the image in a script, but what do I tell visitors about a recommended image quality.

Can someone please enlighten me as to the subtlties of image quality and what works best?

Thanks,
