I agree with PC on everything but the first sentence. It's one of my pet peeves. The 72dpi standard is a fantasy; a hold over from the early days of computers that no longer means anything. For monitors, ignore dpi and stick strictly with the resolution. It amazes me how many reputable computer magazines and sites continue to prescribe this as a standard. For me, I usually think of the standard resolution for today's systems as being 1024x768 (I run 1280x1024 on my screen). I usually make the largest dimension on a photo 668 pixels when I resize it. Once I add my border, it becomes 700 pixels. -=>Donald
