Since I host my own pics, and am lazy, I like full size (read appropriately sized) pics.

What we do at my car forum is post in the title 56K Warning so dial-up folks know they might have to wait while they load

I've always preferred full sized pics in posts; that way lazy as I am I can readily see the picture without waiting for another window to open with the full sized picture.

Naturally, it's up to the author, but since someone asked, I like full sized pictures everytime. I don't know how others do it, but I use the link from Imageshack to insert the pictures in the body of the posts. I have a high speed connection so loading the page is not such a problem, but I can understand the frustration for those who have a long wait using dial up.

Cheers!
Jim

I like thumbnails better. Some of us don't have a very fast connection so it really takes long to load full sized pictures.

Thumbnails rules! :-)

I don't know about "should be", but it seems that this is disctated for you by whatever service is generating them for you, so I don't think you've got much of a choice.
