I render at 3000+ for post and then resize down for the web. I was on a dialup for a long time and hated to go through the galleries here. To many were maxing the limit or they would have a 800x600 image that was 500kb. They never bothered to do a little file compressing, which you can do quite well without any loss noticable on the web.

Curious as to what that would be. My 40th anniversary Strat, I use 9s but the high tension of strats, fender recomends 10s but that is a bit too much. But , the real difference from my strat to my gibsons, 72 les paul and 68 SG, is the finger stretch. The strat has a longer neck.
