Hello all!

I'm wondering what your advice is on the dimensions for my photos to upload to my galleries?

I recently uploaded 4 x 6 photos with 72 res (figuring they'll be for VIEWING only, not printing)..and they seem rather small.

Then I thought perhaps I should upload my FULL files so that I can print them if I want... but those seem HUGE and they take some time to upload.

So I thought I'd ask my fellow SmugMuggians... what is your advice? :)

The more who chime in, the better.

And thanks, in advance, for giving me input! :bow :thumb

    I do full size files....but then again I have high-speed cable internet.

    Thank you, Jeff and Andy, for responding.

    Should I use the "Drag and Drop" uploader? Or is there a more efficient way to upload bulk, large files?
