All good feedback. The top considerations are: 1. Scrolling. Seeing the entire photo at once usually gives the best impression. Remember to take into account the browser window and RO frames. If you want them to be able see it larger, provide a link to a larger version of it somewhere else, like in an Article or on your own website. (I did that today actually) Panormas are of course an exception to this rule but still shouldn't be too wide. 2. Download time. As stated, some people are still on dial-up. And the more we load up the RO servers, the slower it is for everyone. Most images should look good at under 200Kb. Most of my images fall between 800 and 900 pixels wide. At work my screen size is 1920 x 1200 and at home it is 1280 x 1024. I'd say you are safe with 800 pixel wide images. Hope that helps!
