Which one looks better? Large or small.<<

In case you're asking everyone, in my case the larger 40kb one...but then
again, I have a DSL line and don't notice any difference in download time,
and my monitor is set for  1280 by 960...I really can't see any details on
the smaller one without enlarging it (which the email photo viewer in XP is
capable of doing).

If I zoom in on the smaller one to the same physical size as the larger, I
can't tell the difference...so I guess the limiting factor is the download
time for the few that may still be connecting at 14,400 or less.

As an afterthought, I zoomed in for an extreme close-up on the nut on the
left on both pictures...the smaller photo has less pixellation, with
smoother variations.

Yep. I am always asking everybody for their opinion. I hope that goes without
saying :-)

The reason the last event occurred is I use Linux xv to enlarge. I choose
an xv "Quality" option that saves file size to 75% "compression". Here is 
a version set to 95%. Please check this one out Harley. See if you
can see an improvement.
