I'm using Adobe Lightroom Classic for most of my processing. What export settings should I use to get the photos to turn out good, but still be within ModelMayhem size and pixel limitations?

My photos end up appearing blurry once uploaded to MM.

Thanks!

You're probably exporting photos in too high of a resolution causing MM to resize the image using whatever algorithm MM uses.  For optimal export in Lightroom make sure that max 800pixels on the long side is checked.

----------------------------------------------------------------
From Mayhem's rules for images:

  Image Size Guidelines
- Photos must be greater than 200px in width and 300px in height, and 7kb in file size.

- Photos must not contain more than 16 million total square pixels (e.g., 4000px x 4000px), or exceed 1500kb in file size. Photos wider than 800px will automatically be resized.

Do you sharpen again after you resize your images down to 800px wide?

Thanks for the suggestions. I will try that.
