    Since this series was recorded in 2015, I have a question for the pros: Is it still necessary to take into consideration the “medium” and “web” versions of your artwork? Since the internet is so fast now, it seems a bit pointless, and social media like Facebook and Instagram already compress our pictures (and even ruin their quality, sometimes). I know internet speed was already pretty good in 2015, but still… Maybe it’s just professional etiquette 😛

    I’d love to hear what the pros have to say these days :B

    Hi Grabiel. Im not sure if this answers your question, but one situation that comes to mind is where certain website upload your image at a specific size and aspect ratio. If your dimensions are not a multiple of the upload size, then the image can look overly compressed. for example, if the site displays an image at 300×300 and you upload something that in 523×523, it might look bad where as if you upload an image at 600×600 it will compress more nicely.
