Re: resolution for web sites

On a PC, a 96 x 96 pixels will be 1" x 1". On a Mac, 72 x 72 pixels will be
an image of 1" x 1". Most people are using PC's. If you want a 3" x 3"
image, resize your image to 288 x 288 pixels.

If you make your image more than 800 pixels wide, you may have to scroll
left to right to see it. Most people find that annoying.

What size is best to resize photos to in order to display on a web site?

Is 800 x 600 about right?

I take 7mp images with the minimum compression set.

They are from the camera 3072 x 2304 which is far too big for the web.
