Maybe you could make the web resolution pictures click-able so that if a person wants to see a higher resolution shot they could by clicking on the picture.... <br />I love your photos by the way.. It's the thing that first drew me into your blog.harpyrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07282122754012694688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-7959437957587559822009-05-08T00:35:00.000-04:002009-05-08T00:35:00.000-04:00Rule of thumb from a digital print person: balance...Rule of thumb from a digital print person: balance input resolution with the capabilities of the output device.

I wonder if the 72 dpi we get with our monitors really brings out the resolution at full size. It may be a wasted refinement. Sometimes I wait, other times I have limited time and must move on.

That's a long time. To be honest, your pics have always looked great to me. I didn't notice they were higher resolution .. or perhaps I've just been blinded by my intense frustration, wondering why it's suddenly taking sooooo long to pull up your page and if it means my computer is dying or I've done something really stupid, or how late am I going to be getting to work today, because I keep hoping that it will load in just another minute!<br /><br />I suppose it's some relief to know the issue wasn't at my end, but I do miss being able to get my Melody-fix first thing each morning.Nikkinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9291442.post-39125081594990472682009-05-07T11:37:00.000-04:002009-05-07T11:37:00.000-04:00No problem with loading your excellent pix!
