Hi again

Russ a size limit of around 600x400 on pics posted directly or linked in and a limit of 3 per post (not thread) would speed things up considerably.

That works, and limiting the size of the picture to 100K or less doesn't take away from the picture quality either. A lot of the pics in you threads in the Academy are running under 50K, and the details in them are satisfactory. Another reason for keeping the physical size down is that not everyone has a high resolution display. On some older displays, 600 x 480 might fill up the screen. Anything larger would require scrolling and then frustration sets in and the viewer goes on to a different thread.

A point for everyone to remember when posting pictures: if you're proud of your photo, make sure it's sized so that everyone can see it and it doesn't take a very long time to view, otherwise your efforts are going to be wasted. If you aren't proud, go ahead and make it super big with a large filesize and you can be sure very few will be seeing it.
