It looked good at that size. :)

The default sizes being based on width alone is pretty horrible -- it 
makes the actual total image size dependent on the aspect ratio, so 
images will be varyingly annoyingly small or annoyingly large. Thus 
nearly every image needs to be customized to look decent inline.

Note that for reformatting for small screens you'll basically need to 
decide at the reformatter level if and how much you need to size images 
for that screen.

In theory we could create a new, more useful set of generic sizes 
targetting sidebar-type floats, page-wide panaramas, half-page-ish 
diagrams (which might need to be full page-width on a small screen) etc. 
There is not currently any provision for this, just a general thumb size 
which is rarely useful or comfortable.
