QR Code Generation

To make my instructions accessible to smart phones via QR code I first uploaded a full resolution image to the image hosting site imgur:
The reason I chose to use imgur for this is because of their very short embedding URLs. Shorter URLs mean shorter QR code size, as well as more potential for increasing error tolerances.
I then took this URL and generated a QR code that lead to the full size image using the online tools available at the-qrcode-generator.com. After a quick test I then saved the image to be used on the January month of my calendar.
