Definitely this is quite good to keep the images in the same size for use but when it comes to on-line sharing I don’t think this is the size that is required. I guess mosr of the time <a class="zem_slink" title="XGA" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XGA">1024×768</a> is sufficient. Even if you are sending the images in email, you cannot afford to send a lot of images of this size even with a gmail account.</p>
