I am not one to complain about much, but if you take a really good look through the galleries, you will see the issue people are having with the forced scaling of the images to a max width of 700.
And while you are correct that most of the images look fine with the reduced image size, some are just looking downright horrible. For example, my latest image looks fine when clicked into http://excalibur.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1237532 but when this image is viewed when I click "my summary" the reduction for this image looks horrid. Also, when you click into this image http://excalibur.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1222048 , the reduction is distorting the image badly and the only recourse is to click into the larger image to see it without distortion. I am using the latest versions of several browser using state of the art tech on my system and do not have these issues at other online galleries.
I dont mind the resizing as much as I don't like the quality of the resized image.
For years I have used Renderosity as an online portfolio reference as I am slow to update my personal website. I may have to reconsider this option until this issue is addressed.

On a more positive note...
I was a bit skeptical when these new galleries came online but you guys have done a tremendous job of listening and reconciling issues as they were presented from the community. I am really beginning to like how these new galleries are shaping up :) Overall you guys did a great job with this!
thanks for your time
