Yes. The pictures which I upload come in the 2000 odd by 1000 odd resolution. Which fits in snugly under 800 kb. There are exceptions though. -- Regards, Srikanth Ramakrishnan. Wikipedia Coimbatore Meetup on February 12th. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meetup/Coimbatore Aliens invaded Tamil

If it's done before and has been successful, then go ahead. I'm nobody to force my viewpoint on others. But do remember, if one person gets paid, others may ask. Older contributors may leave. Alternatively, while content will increase, contributors will go down. Cheers. -- Regards, Srikanth
