Browser Fail

Firefox is the browser most supported and most accurately up-to-date. The PuzzleAttic team has designed the jigsaw site with Firefox as our default browser, for maximum functionality and user satisfaction. As example, the reference photo on the puzzle playing page enlarges when users mouse over it in Firefox. It remains small and difficult to see in all other browsers.
So, enjoy the maximum pleasure from PuzzleAttic and get Firefox, a free download and supported worldwide by volunteers.


The PuzzleAttic
large puzzles are best viewed and played using a 23-inch monitor or larger, set to full-screen mode so that the browser window fills the screen. This will also maximize your playing area for staging and arranging puzzle pieces outside of the rectangle assembly frame.

Photo Sizing -
in the rare case that you have trouble...

The photos you upload are automatically resized to fit the parameters of the playing fields. These sizes are, for horizontal images, 960 (width) x640 (height) pixels (large), 540 (width) x360 (height) pixels (medium), and 250 (width) x167 (height) pixels (thumbnail). Vertical images are 360 (width) x540 (height) pixels and 167 (width) x250 (height) pixels. Note: No large images can be used for vertical puzzles. Puzzleattic highly recommends that you crop and resize your image to 960x640 pixels before uploading to avoid stretching/squeezing during the automated resizing process.
To assure that your puzzle images maintain proper aspect ratio you must provide cropped and/or resized images within the size limitations detailed above. Below are examples of what can happen if this step is not taken.

IMAGE FORMAT: Only ".jpg" or ".jpeg" image files will be accepted by the uploader.
Other formats, such as .png, .PSD, .TIF, etc. will be rejected during upload.
