Content Notes: Colored pencils; I was inspired to start drawing for this challenge after watching a blue heron stalking through a lake, and found a picture online to draw. It's only now, after looking at the prompt list for the n^th time, that I realized the original prompt was "ghost hunting." Oops! :D

These are great and I especially love your fierce heron and cheerful snail!

I don't know if this would help, but I find that photos of art are always really huge pics that take a while to load. I use a simple app called resize it - https://apps.apple.com/nz/app/resize-it-image-resize/id844716779, and it looks like this is an android option: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zmobileapps.photoresizer&gl=US

Thank you! And thank you for the app recommendation. Is there a size you prefer when you re-size? I didn't even think of the loading time, sorry about that!

I've seen people say not to exceed 800px per side, for general art posting. I tend to stick to 800 or 1000 px max. for the longest side - that seems to load pretty easily, and stays in good definition.

Excellent advice, thank you!
