Re: PAW PESO - Spare some sex?

A photo that bothers you profoundly is a very good thing. Some of the 
best photos ever taken bothered people profoundly. Some of the Vietnam 
PJ photos come to mind.

It does do better in the larger size.
OTOH the photo bothers me profoundly. To me it epitomizes California, 
that and the Holywood tinsel seems to be all there is out there. The 
bottom of society and the fake. It says too much too clearly, and at 
the same time leaves me feeling helpless to do anything about it. Our 
society sucks and the most a photo like yours does is let some 
do-gooders punish people like those in the photo because it makes them 
feel just like it does me, but they are not honest enough to admit 
that they helped make the problems, we all did.

I think in most cases the web image should be cropped the same as 
the print. The exception might be where there is interesting detail 
that gets lost in a small image. Perhaps the ideal solution in 
regard to your "Spare some sex" image would be a larger file. My web 
posts are generally 13 inches on the long side at 72dpi. That's 
still viewable without scrolling on all but the stingiest monitors.
