20090810 Bloom & La Joute de Jean-Paul Riopelle

I used once a while back the Bloom app for Facebook to upload pictures and liked it until I read today that they resample once and then Facebook once again after that! Compare

, a jpg I uploaded through Bloom, with
, the same jpg I uploaded directly to Facebook with it's simple uploader. Same with

compared with
The Bloom resampling has lots of tiny white dots all over the image, the image directly uploaded to Facebook is much softer and more enjoyable to see.
I rated two stars for the effort but improvements have to be made. At the moment it's only a temporary second choice to the Facebook multiple uploader when it doesn't work. And only for regular snapshots, not for good "artsy" pics.
This is a photo album of Jean-Paul Riopelle's 1975 work called "La Joute". Compare the Bloom uploaded album here compared to the same pics directly uploaded to Facebook with it's Java multiple uploader here. Images speak for themselves.
