Re: Picture Browser

Loading the thumbnails is pretty quick.. but the full-size images are pretty extreme. Very few people are going to be able to fit a 4mp image in their browser. I wouldn't go any larger than 1280x960 for an image on the web for just a photo gallery like that. (Always exceptions, of course.. like a high-quality team picture is sometimes nice so people can print it at a high resolution). I'd also aim for filesizes at most 700kb. A picture I viewed was 1.7mb and that's way too big. I do like the photo gallery. It works great and looks nice. I'd just suggest resizing the images. There are some good batch image resizers out there (if someone knows the names of any.. I know I don't).. I'd use that.

Otherwise, nice job!
