Weird request, but could you do a video on Infinite Painter and Sketchbook Pro when you have time? I wanted to create a webtoon but I'm not sure which program would be best since I have Android and a Surface Pro (Microsoft only provides so much in that instance other than like Krita) and I'm not sure which app would be better in regards to open source programing. I would use krita but it'd take getting used to and downloading Lord knows how many brush sets from DA. Anyway lobe your videos and hope you have a great day/night!!!
I never understood why artists hated the quality of Instagram, but when I tried to upload an illustration on big canvas size... oh boy Thank you for your tips! I was searching for decades an video about that, but never found it... so thank you!
I've never heard anyone say once about making a dummy art account... that's new info to me! I never even thought about it. Good idea tho, for sure!! TY
@@hayden9802 Well, drafts doesn't actually show you what it looks like once it's fully uploaded. So that wouldn't really be that helpful for testing, imo.
Honestly I thought I'm the only one who has dummy art account & constantly label them with jpeg 50%, png 24 etc. Relieved that doing this is not sheer madness rather a recommendation from this artist. I spend days doing my bg arts so I get frustrated if it gets pixelated
@@exoticphoenix7379 i didn't do this before posting to twitter and i regret it! I now do the exact same thing with the % for quality, dimensions, etc and will do so for ig too
Just a quick reminder: If you use Instagram's promoting post feature. Instagram (for some reason) compresses the image after anyway. Even when you do this technique. So keep this in mind if you plan to "promote" your artwork there. I knew this trick before and it's nice to see you showing it to more people, Instagram's compressions suck so bad. Great video, as always!
Procreate gives you to “sharpen”. So I recommend sharpening the final rendered Image and then save it as JPG with 150 or higher dpi. And it also often helped to use the ‘structure’ tool in Instagram itself before posting. :) great video tho. Cool to see the differences.
F I N A L L Y! The correct answer to all my (and I guess to many other) questions. Just set the sharpness to your image in Procreate and export it to jpg. I set mine canvas to 300 dpi and Instagram doesn’t mess the sharpness. Thank you! ❤
Also posting multiple pictures in a single post deteriorates the quality even more. So if you want to post the speedpaint or reference picture along with your artwork, try posting it as a separate post. Like, I always post the speedpaint and reference picture in one post and post the finished artwork as another post.
I am really appreciative of this video, I've been learning about all the differences between PNG and JPEG and DPI and PPI and it gets confusing sometimes LOL
When you experiment, you need to change only 1 variable at a time so you can tell what actually makes the difference. Changing to 1080p and JPEG at the same time, or double-size and medium quality, muddies the waters. (Still, the video helps narrow things down for people.)
I was making it "instagram size" from the beginning because I was scared people will steal the high resolution illustration to sell without credit. I didn't know people tried to upload FULL HIGH RES SIZE to get sharper images. I was confused receiving DMs asking me how I upload high res images lmao. Please don't do that, especially twitter because people can actually download high resolution images from there
I am in android, I watched this vid and got some ideas. I actually used Ibispaint and I followed/revised some steps and BOOM! I got results. But when I tried to do it again, i forgot what I did. So here I am watching again XD. Your video is super helpful Sir! Thank you very much!
I found good results by using the recommended resolution 1080x1080 or 1080x1350(portrait) compressed to a .jpg and aiming for roughly a file size of 250KB. You can probably push that to 350KB. Instagram like many other platforms employ aggressive compression to reduce file size so that images load fast. Doing some of the optimization for them is what I like to think this approach does. A compromise.
This was something that I struggled with understanding for a while until I redid my portfolio website. Often social media would downgrade the quality of my stuff and my website would lag, low and behold it was because my files were so large. I found that resizing my work (the largest side) to 2000px and then letting the software keep it proportional seems to work. I have work of different sizes and I make one full version for print then resize for web. I’ll actually try what you did and try the dummy account, I never thought to do that.
Those JPEG format options explained as it mostly has to do with browser compatibility. Baseline (Standard): Displays the image when it has fully downloaded. This JPEG format is recognizable to most web browsers. Baseline (Optimized): Optimizes color quality of the image and produces smaller file sizes (2 to 8%) but is not supported by all web browsers. Progressive (3 scans-5 scans): Downloads the image first as a low-resolution image, with incremental quality improvements as downloading continues.
Hello! Comp Sci major know-it-all here! Just thought I'd let you know that there's actually a difference between SI prefixes and their computer counterparts. Because bits and by extension bytes operate on the power of 2 (Has to do with binary switches), 1 kilobyte isn't just 1000 bytes, it's 2^10 or 1024 bytes. 1 megabyte is 2^10 kilobytes or 1024 kilobytes, and so on. It's one of the reasons that when you look at the actually number of bytes on a disk or in a file, it's not a nice round number. The more you know!
Honestly I thought I'm the only one who has dummy art account & constantly label them with jpeg 50%, png 24 etc. Relieved that doing this is not sheer madness rather a recommendation from this artist. I spend days doing my bg arts so I get frustrated if it gets pixelated
I personally still upload as a png it still looks INFINITELY better than letting the full file get compressed. Ijust don't wanna do jpeg because I figured I should get the most out of having so many files so I use my ig uploads as shop previews so people can't just screenhot the full quality of my work
I love your art and your advice, and completely off topic but I wanted to say you have the best voice. it's so relaxing particularly when it's been a tough day. thanks for that.
In one of Angry Mikko's videos he says that he screenshots the painting on his phone, then uploads the screenshot with some sharpening to account for the compression that will happen. I haven't tried a side-by-side comparison, but the dummy account is a good tip that I will try out!
@@jonathanpedicino2579 jpegs are lossy compression, so they make the image look worse. png is lossless, so the image will be better quality if you save it as a png.
I use a cheap desk lamp and a tv tray (I might need to use 2 to get rid of the shadow of my hand and phone) i remember seeing a video of taking photos of Gundams using 3 $10 Ikea flexible desk lamps.
This still helps for traditional art ! I generally rely a lot of daylight for images of my art with my smartphone, and I sliiightly sharpen them in PicsArt app. Slightly increased contrast. This makes traditional art display much better. Also Josh's tip of posting a close-up shot of art is something I did not think of before today - so that is great for catching people's eye.
Tl;dr: post in the recommended sizes/format for the social media you're posting on But I'm curious, how do you upload digital art directly from your computer to instagram? Last I checked, I could never find a way to do it online on desktop :/
Ethan Becker mask epic Thanks for this video Josh! I just got an iPad and started working with Procreate and will be posting for my Instagram more, I definitely needed to know this stuff :)
I've been feeling very stumped and unmotivated. I haven't been drawing any finished pieces. I'm scared I will stop drawing and put all my years of practicing and improving to a waste. What should I do?
Thanks for the Pro tip! We definitely want to put our best foot forward. Since their downscaling is so bad on Instagram, would I be right to assume not to trust their sharpening etc either?
dude I'm you in this whole video I mean it's me all the time all the steps. trying big, trying small, wondering what progressive compression is hahahah I love big illustrators having the same unsolved problems than me, gives me hope
8:10 Is that "JPEG options" menu only a photoshop thing? I'm so confused I've been trying for hours to get that pop-up when saving from clip studio paint
Wow. Nice tips. I'm usually so lazy that I just take a screenshot (I use snip and sketch on windows) of the image and crop it in Instagram. I always thought I got decent quality.
1:19 not to be rude or anything, but this image looks so weird. The entire character`s posture gives me a feeling like she`s about to fall down, because her entire torso is tilted towards the other side, she is leaning with her body , but supposed to be standing without support and it gives me weird vibes. Plus, leg anatomy feels off on this piece: her knees are asymmetrical and give an impression as if she`s a doll being composed with different leg parts. I think this could have been fixed with a good silhouette practice and by flipping canvas sides :> Or maybe you can put her left leg a bit closer to the right side, so her face and toe will be approximately on the same level if you would cross a line from her face right to her toes I hope you or the other will find it useful
Hey, I appreciate that you put a lot of thought into this reply and did you best to give insightful critique, but it's universally considered bad etiquette to offer critique on creative work when the creator hasn't asked for it (and I think you know this, at least subconsciously, or you wouldn't have started the comment with "not to be rude or anything"). Your constructive criticism skills are good, though -- you might want to hang out in art critique groups where this type of comment will be most valued.
I agree with you, however, the reason I have posted this critique is because how basic this art mistake is. He as a professional artist and supposed to know all that silhouette, leaning down/falling thing, since it`s his bread and butter, it`s like fixing a mistake of a Math teacher. I am not gonna lie or deny that the rendeing in his portaits is cool and decent, but when it comes to poses even my non-artist friends can tell that the "figure looks off". That`s why I have added "not to be rude" and spent time writing this out, because he teaches other people and wants sthem to improve in the way I want him to do so as well.
Hi! I’ve been trying to get the right pixels for an art work I did on procreate (the original canvas was 1443 x 1003 and another of 1951 x 1298) Ive tried different sizes and also brought the dpi down to 72 as a jpeg but it still won’t look good on Instagram. I also tried with lower pixels such as 911 x 608 but no results. Any advice from the masters ?
Omg I struggle with this alot, The reg canvas size that I would draw at is 10000 pixels wide and 10000 pixels tall. When Id post my work at this dimension, Id notice that the quality would significantly drop. Something that I regularly do is use the app photoshop express to make the image smaller and then post it on instagram with dimensions of 2000 by 2000 pixels.
Basically if you compress the image yourself you have more control over the quality of the process. Who knows what settings Instagram uses when they compress your huge file. They're going to choose lower quality to save storage and bandwidth.
Omg i was never this early! Hello everyone please note that you’re validated and loved and please take care of yourself in those hard times! Happy first advent 🎄✨
i made a dummy account some weeks ago, but i just noticed that on my dummy account the image quality is good, while on my main account it uploads with low quality, kind of pixelated. Does anyone know why this happen?
Cool tips @ergojosh! ... I'm also finding that the image brightness, contrast, and saturation are LESS on the uploaded image, anyone else finding this, and overcooking the image prior to upload to compensate?
Thanks a lot for makıng a very useful video like this. I really needed such a video because I always wonder how can I improve the resolution of my images on Instagram, I will do as you said from now on.
