    I may have it wrong, but if you publish the page, you don’t want it to be any larger than a few hundred KB for the whole page, other wise it will take ages to load onto viewers screens.
    A thumb nail should be about 10-20 KB max & the main image about 100-200 KB max depending on size of image that is viewed. Any size over this will not look any different on the web. This may help http://www.vodahost.com/pix.htm to get your images to a smaller size. Or is there anther reason you may want large image files???

      I would agree with Chris ... and like he says about the thumbnails, these are created with use of the gallery feature ...

      I guess I would add that if you are putting more than one image on one page without the use of the gallery and thumbnails, you should also reduce those images down to around the 20 kbs each so that you don't get the long load time like Chris says ...

          Hi, that’s no problem. You would store the originals in a place on your site that can be downloaded from after payment. So in actual fact! You will have a thumb nail to a larger screen view, this will be sent to your site via publish, then have a 2-11meg original images for download. You will have to upload these heavier images by FTP.
          Regards Chris.
