Dear all,

I think I've posted this question before (a long time ago) and others have
posted it since, but I'd like to have your opinion on the best resolution
to post pictures in this group....

I normally post in 800*600 pixels, but with the ever increasing LCD sizes
in use, I wonder if a slighhtly higer (1024*768) might be better, or even
higher still?

As I automatically resize my pictures before posting, I don't mind to
adjust the settings. Let me know what you think and I'll adjust my
program.

best regards,

Jeroen

I mostly convert to 1200 or 1220 pix wide. And compress the file
The picture attach is 1220 pix wide and compress to 90,4Kb
Manny screens have now a resolution of 1280 wide so 1200 or 1220 will fit
nicely

Greets,
Willem

My irfanview is set to show all the picture within my monitor, however
when I view it at original size it fills the horizontal and a bit
extra vertically. Not a problem as it shows the entire ship water to
top of masts. Just a small bit of right scrolling shows the water at
the bottom.
That is a good size and if all posts were that size I would probably
want to see some larger sizes at times.
