It seems from the votes so far that those voting are seeing the same Screen Resolutions that I do; that is 1024 x 768. Because of this I tend to resize our "Full Scale" Railfan Digital Camera (8MP) images down to 900x600 which leaves a nice margin around them without having allot of wasted space. I still try to compress them down to 100K or less for space / bandwidth reasons for longterm viewing. For my older/smaller digital camera (1.2MP) I resize those images to 800x600 so they fit nicely in about the same space by centering the image. This way the webpages for the most part display equally. The VideoFrames I pull out of my Camcorder are already at 640x480 so I don't resize them at all and center them on the page as well.

So much dead space for those with widescreen monitors.

If I recall correctly, the next update will allow individual users to set their display pixel width, yes?
