Actually, I think that poilu's post shows that a 500px picture can easily give an impression of what the image is about.
If you link to a larger version, you can see details.

Maybe folks could just mention picture width in their subject line if they are posting large. Then the people with small monitors could just ignore it and move on.
Pbase.com is where I post my pics. I size almost everything to 1200 pixel width but pbase.com automatically makes a small medium and large copy of the original. Very easy to post large or medium with imbeded link to the original. I almost never post the original. I do use higher resolution put my monitor is UXGA and I want it too look good on MY screen too. I didn't spend extra money on a good monitor so I could look at low resolution pictures.
Too may people spend too much money on their camera gear then go home and look at pictures on a poor monitor. I see it every day.

Hang on Arlon, I think you're mixing up the screen resolution with the picture resolution. The picture resolution depends upon the camera/lens or the scanner. You don't get a low resolution picture by looking at it on a cheap monitor.
Increasing the size of the monitor doesn't automatically mean you can see more of a big picture. If the resolution of the screen is at the same setting as the small monitor the screen pixels just become larger and you see exactly the same content, only magnified. If you want to see more content you have to increase the screen resolution as well. If we all had a constant ratio between our monitor size and the screen resolution then everybody would see exactly the same content (at different magnifications).
By the way, my 19" flat panel monitor wasn't cheap quality. I can't fit a larger screen on my desk unless I remove my lens shelf! _________________ Peter - Moderator |

Alternatively, maybe folks could just stick to the guidelines.

My 'old' CRT monitor cost me several hundred pounds a few years ago and it will still blow most current monitors into the weeds. I won't be replacing it anytime soon as long as it stays within parameters. _________________ Dave - Moderator

That code makes all images be 800 wide (so narrower ones are made wider) and uses the crappy algorithm in curtrent HTML browsers. Bad idea.
Through all this heated discussion, the focus has been on images and the assertion that they 'force people to scroll'. But that is asking the wrong question. The original complaint was about text wrapping. If there is to be editing of the bbcode snippets, then the place to start is establishing a max width for the text which in fact already gets wider with images of 900 or indeed 800px. Having the text wrap at a comfortable width, and having wider images jut out fro the text to the right, would deal with the issue of the original complaint at source. _________________ Camera (ˈkæ mə rə), n.

Hi Puplet, the height of pictures doesn't cause any problems for me and we've never set any voluntary limits. However, it's always preferable IMO to be able to let everyone see a whole picture without needing to scroll up and down. 900 is about the max I can fit on my screen, but don't feel bound by that. _________________ Peter - Moderator |

768 is the maximum height allowed by the Upload Image button, whatever the width. I tried an experiment - this picture was originally 768 wide x 1157 high but the Upload button has resized it to 510 x 768 high, which fits nicely on my screen.
But as I said, there is nothing against anyone posting a taller image by other means if they want to as long as it's within the max 900 width. There has never been a poll or agreement on the max height of images. _________________ Peter - Moderator |

Sorry , first I stop definitively posting any picture. I don't want spending any time to reduce pics to satisfy this "law" edicted by under an hallf-dozen of "vip" people .
