Don't agree Richard, clipping pictures to a smaller resolution is a waist
of information. Sometimes the value is in the details!. If you have a look
at my pictures at forum.okhuijsen.org -> gallery You will see that there
is first a thumbnail, so fast loading, selecting that small picture will
give you a reasonable 768x1028 definition picture and again click that
will produce the original definition one, which is too large for normal
computer screen and will load slowly on anything slower then T1, but will
offer all the details. Hard disk space is cheap nowadays, and we should
not throw anything away, that later could be usefull.
