The only reason to have large files is if you want to print photo quality pictures. Screen resolutions, even with modern screen do not give the definition necessary to need large files. If you print out the two files i provided you will see a difference but if you look at them on the screen there is no discernable difference.

To help Katie out it would be a good idea if all of us girls who have photos on the site made them as small as possible in memory usage - by the way if you have a site which uses large pictures then your bandwidth increases as you increase in traffic which incurs payments for each megabite over your alloted monthly use - hence Katie has to pay for all of our use of this site.
