As I mentioned before I have modified that process which now includes the use of photoshop to create thumbs. As far as the enormous file sizes go, that's
the way the content came from the sponsor...? Should I worry about reducing these heavy file sizes?

Hey can I use this on my soon-to-be webmaster blog? I have lots of tips for it. BTW yes image sizes are important, because
1. most server plans have a bandwidth limit before you pay for overages or they shut you off. tgp galleries eat a lot.
2. some surfers are still on dialup
3. you want to show bite size samples to get interest, not the entire meal.
I resize the images to be 800 on the long side, which gives a file size between 50k-100k

It sounds like some webmasters will take it but for the most part if your a new guy in the biz trying to get your AWS hosted Freesite listed at greenguy your SOL...

Yes that's exactly right. Don't blame the site owners, blame the cheaters trying to fuck them over every day.
