Which version to upload?

Posted under General

When two versions of an art of the same resolution each has different artifacts/compression issues etc, are there any traits that take precedence? In my case, there's one that has blurry edges and one that has pixelated edges.

I'd upload both in that case. Just set the one as parent that you think looks better overall.

Isn't duplicates discouraged though? Back when I still had upload limits at least half of my deletion were because of that, and they're not even complete duplicates, even variations could be rejected.

Are they the same file type or file size?

Both are jpg. How to look at file size? I assume they should be close.

blurry one & pixelated one
Here, you guys can have a look.

The "blurry" one is much higher resolution and doesn't look blurry at all to me, so I'd only up that.

I guess it's because of image sample, anyway thanks for all the advice everyone.
