Sorry, but this is nonsense. I'm not talking about photos, but about graphs, line art, tables. Using PNG you can create real small (in filesize) images, like 10-30 kilobytes. The size of the image (dimension) often doesn't matter that much. You can create the same image (black on white or line art with three or four colors) and resizing (less pixels) it won't make much of a difference in file size, nothing significant.

I cannot believe that publishers create small pictures because bigger pictures means that their book will be deleted later on. That argument seems far fetched.

I know a guy who wrote for tv magazines. He wrote extensive reviews, did nterviews. He can't make a living anymore. He currently is learning how to use AI to his advantage.

That is the problem. He should have contacted them like he did the second time. When he went into their shop, it all depended on that particular employee, and you can't blame that person for not recognizing the issue.

This is typical Microsoft logic. And 'logic' should be quoted, because Microsoft has the most stupid texts in their products. They make translation errors, grammatical errors, use incomprehensible and stupid comments.

We want the monitor, not the tablet. Plus the probably needed software for Windows, macOS ánd Linus to handle the color scheme.

We don't want to pay for software? Look at the Appstore! Good products for reasonable prices are worth the money. Affinity offers a good product for a reasonable price. Adobe offers a better product but the subscription model is hated by many. For me Affinity products are good enough. Let's hope the current versions keep on working on Apple Silicon and Windows 11/12/etc. The current 2 version is good enough for me and for the next ten years. If I really need AI tools for image editing, I'll take a one month subscription to some tool.
