Why are there different image sizes?
When you upload an image to PBase, three versions of the image (other than the original you uploaded) are automatically generated - small, medium and large.
The small is no larger than 160 pixels on either side, the medium no larger than 400 pixels, and the large is no larger than 800 pixels.
PBase will only generate sizes that are smaller than your original. So, if your original is smaller than 800 pixels on both sides, no large will be generated.

When viewing the image, if different size files exist for the same image, you will have your choice of sizes. This is useful if you have a slow internet connection and want to view a smaller size, or if you want greater detail and want to view a larger size.
Once you choose a size, PBase will make that your default viewing size on that computer until you choose a different size.
The initial default viewing size for everyone is large.

Non-Public Images
FAQ
A non public image is an image that is not visible in your gallery. Only the image owner can view the image when logged in to his account.

If an image lives in a subgallery of a non-public gallery, but the subgallery is not non-public, then the image itself is public and can appear in the random images on the profile page. You can easily check which of your galleries are public/non-public and which are password-protected by going to your root gallery and clicking the "tree view" link at the top right of the page. This will list all of your galleries, marking non-public ones with [non-public] and password-protected ones with [locked].... (more)

Yes. A non-public image can be in a public gallery. When editing an image, you can decide whether an image is public by checking or unchecking the box next to "this image is publicly viewable". Even in a public gallery, if you uncheck this box, the image itself will be non-public and will only show up to the image owner.
