Thank you for the tips!  What is the best size for pictures to be shown on web?

I will work on my website.   Its been a headache for me for a while.  I’ll work on the contrast on my photos.  I’ll get rid of my animal pics  LOL ( I laughed out loud about the kitty cat remark)   I actually forgot they were there.  Yeah tigers,lemurs and kitty cats (oh my) dont say “portrait photographer”.

Is resizing and compressing the same thing?  If they are not, which is better to showcase my pics?

I have tried to read up about it, but alas. . . .  its a lot of info.  I’ll get rid of the scroll bar and I’ll try to resize the whole website.  I was gonna wait, but maybe it would be better for me to invest in a custom design right now.   I had a vista print site before,  and it was the worst and it would make my pics look cloudy (maybe I tried to compensate by making my photos overly contrasty?)

Another question for you guys.  I am writing up a business plan and doing some local market research.  I want to be able to offer my clients professional prints if they so choose and/or a digital disk/usb for a fee.  How would you price out the prints? Of course I would like to make a profit on the prints, but I don’t want to scare them away by the prices? Is there a rule of thumb?
