Had a few idle moments, checked the FAQ, thought I'd ask here: What size images would folks appreciate seeing in the Gallery and in the Forum? And how much compression? I do not like to scroll pictures, so I like to limit the size to about 600 pixels vertical by 900 horizontal, (my monitor is set to 864X1152, and figure tool-bar stuff). For the Forum, I usually post smaller because it is more to illustrate than impress, and I want to keep downloads speedy. In Photoshop, my jpeg compression is set to "medium." I may increase this some for the contests, especially if B&W which are pretty small anyway. Gallery images run around 100K, and I really hesitate to post anything more than 175K. Forum images I try to hold to below 80K. I have a cable modem (!!!joy). I'm betting others have different preferences...
