What photo size?

Hi again!

I've got 70+ listings to go through- I want to use lower resolution, dpi (not sure of the term) images for my photography listings to reduce the chances of them being stolen online.

I saw in one of the Online Labs videos the dpi that they recommend for this- small enough that it doesn't look good enlarged, but large enough to look good in your listing. But now I can't remember WHAT dpi they recommend.

What do you all use? Or do you know off the top of your head what dpi is recommended for this?

Thanks!

Athena, I use 72dpi for all my online images with 1000px on the longest side.

That is large enough for the web but not really large enough for a good print for which you want 150-300dpi. Although, don't get me wrong, it still could be printed. It just won't be a high quality print.
