I agree and I always save my jpegs at between 80 and 90% compression and never post anything on the net wider than 800. On my own website, I always just thumbnails linked to larger images, sure saves on bandwidth. Most people would rather browse through the gallery of thumbnails (around 300 wide) and only click on images that they want to see detail on. I often skip out of posts if the image is too wide for my screen, I know that the originator probably didn't compress the image and even with cable they often take too long to load.
