    huge pics vs. video (*huge* pics)

    Do surfers appreciate huge high-res pictures as much as video? Probably not, but how do they convert?

    What's your experience promoting Image based sites?

    A majority of the old school surfers (what is that, maybe 40%) have 800x600 res. With windowsXP it forces a higher res desktop. So I think that bigger pictures could do better now and in the future. I prefer images that can fit on a 1024x768 screen so that they're bigger than other galleries, fit the screen of the newer PCs with the default rez, and aren't too huge for 800x600.

    If a person has 800x600 res, they probably won't know how to view the picture at a smaller size if they have their picture resizing tool turned off in IE.

      How about promoting sites that focus on high quality photo content?

      I've done OK with some , but others haven't gone anywhere.


      I agree it's probably 'older' surfers who appreciate good photos. How do you target the 'collector' types?

        I don't like huge pictures.
        I keep the pictures in my members section around 700pixels on the long side.
        I have had no complaints. But Tony also frames everything very tightly so that whole picture is just me...not a bunch of shitty background objects.
        Also...only 20% of people who have internet access have high speed, so why have the dial up users suffer?

          I like very hq pics! they rock!
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

            20% sounds a bit off to me. i think its more like 40% now.

              My server stats still show much lower than 40% as well as about the same viewing at 800x600

                  That's what I had figured too.
                  But yesterday while driving to work, I was listening to the radio and CNN radio came on and gave that factoid. I was shocked it was that low.

                    I'll have to check my stats out once I get to the office today and report them here as far as that goes.

                      I don't think that that will convert better...

                        If you can't see face, tits and pussy without scrolling then it's too big! Assume user screen rez is set no higher than 1024x768.

                          I was more relating huge image content to video content, so bandwidth isn't really the deciding issue is it?

                          If you've got the bandwidth to be watching video, you should be fine with images - no matter how big.


                          I'm talking more about surfer appreciation. Do people appreciate hi-rez, hi-quality photo content?

                          I know some people do well with sites like MetArt & Hegre.

                                I personally like large high quality pics.

                                This is where my next million is coming from!

                                    My theory is that if you show them little shitty pictures then they might assume that that's what you have inside the members area.

                                    Plus you have a much better chance of getting listed at tgps with better quality larger pics. TheHun for example like big clear pics.

                                    At least 800 x 600 IMHO

                                              They did ok..... but it evened out with the BW bill.... so I dont bother

                                                When the picture is 2x the size of the monitor (or resoultion) I find it annoying. That's what you're dealing with when the 40% have 800x600 people.

                                                  What I understood in the last survey 20% is about right

                                                    I think pics 800*600 will be good, if they not cropped
                                                    SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                                                      Hello,

                                                      in the case if you need 3 Megapixels picture (as I know no one offers this superb quality on the net yet) - you have to use AdPayout.
                                                      Both AdPayout sites ( www.eveangel.com and www.myadiamond.com ) using 3 Megapixel pictures in ALL sets! (And there is daily updates!)

                                                      No competitors with AdPayout .
                                                      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.
