Hi,

I'd like to start putting some of my pics on pixspot. Should I resize them down to any particular size ?

What's a good recommended size ?

Thanks
Naasif

I try to keep the largest edge about 800 pixels and the image size ~100-120kb. That way it fits on almost all screens without scrolling and doesn't take too long for people with dial up to download.

I'm similar to John. I go for 1000 pixels on longest side and aim for a file size under 200K. Need to be mindful that some (unfortunate) souls still have dialup!
