Is there any point to display an image on line at 300 PPI as opposed to 72 (or 96) with the same outside dimensions of, say
1200 x 800  ?   Or  as .png as opposed to jpg ?

"someone" told me once that the human eye can't see any more detail on a screen than 72 ppi anyway and since it loads faster,
one need not make images larger...

Yet it seems to me that some images you guys pointing to 1 mg to 3 mg files on line do look "better"... on my LCD monitor...

Has something changed with the technology so that one can tell the difference now as opposed to say 3 or 4 years ago?

My eyes are so shot i know it doesnt matter, but it does matter that others see my stuff at it's best under certain circumstances.

I've avoided asking you guys this for awhile cause it makes me feel inadequate not to know -- :-)

Almost all the files I send to smugmug are 300 ppi/dpi and 12 inches across - and a few mgs... but I don't know if
the site translates them to show them on my site at a lesser resolution.
