Sometimes in the comments on my works I get people saying that mt photo size should be larger. But conversely, Often I open an image and cannot fit the entire photo on the screen without scrolling. This really takes away from being able to view the photos how they are meant to be seen. Face it- not everbody out there has a 19" monitor, and being one who designs websites as well as doing photography, I size mine for the most common viewing resolution- 800x600 (that statistic is taken from my website(s) and the viewer statistics). Personally I have a 17" monitor set to 1024x768 and am able to view about 75% of whats on here without scrolling. I usually size mine at approx 620x480 taking into consideration all the frames & nav bars on the rosity site. Could there be a better size recommendation for photos in this gallery so those who arent using the 22" and above monitors might enjoy- or maybe the artists might take into consideration those with 15" monitors?
