What's a good size for a pic to be shown online?

What do you resize your pics to... if you want to share?

I try to get under 100k if possible, 50k better. Max would be about 250k, and only if the clicker knew it was that big.

640xWhatever for normal pics

not higher than 1280xWhatever for something that realy needs it

640x480 seems like the way to go

People resize pics?

and for file sizes, below 100kb

Okay. Sounds good. I took a quick snapshot of the chair I've been sitting on. (the chair's broken. the pic sucks). I resized it to 800x600. 640x480 seems better for this sort of thing.

I always resize my pics to 640x480 and compress them as best as possible. some people just throw up 1600x1200 size pics that are over 3 megs... what kinda ganster crap is that?

Unless you're printing the picture onto paper, 640x480 is sufficient for 99.99% of people.
