Blog Sized Pics
I just added a bunch of blog-sized photos for webmasters and bloggers to download and use to promote TastyTrixie and TrixiesHouseboy (or SpyOnUs).
I size my blog photos at 400x300 then add a 10 pixel black border. There doesn't seem to be a real standard as far as blog photo size goes -- actual non-adult photoblogs tend towards a format with one big full size photo posted per entry and something akin to a slideshow format to navigate from one photo to another. I don't particularly like those. Most of the porn pseudo blogs seem to use thumbnails or small pics linking to galleries, etc. I don't particularly like those either. I've been using the 300-400 pixel size ever since I started posting photos in my main blog. They're big enough to see some texture on close-ups, and small enough to see the entire composition of the photo from top to bottom. They don't contradict the textual nature of the blog as you can see plenty of text around the photo, but they do a good job of breaking up all of the type, popping out and catching people's attention. The size fits nicely on almost every blog format.
I actually really enjoy seeing smaller photos used in the internet porn world -- I get tired of the competition to have huge giant pictures which, viewed on most people's monitors, are just fragments of a photo . . . fragments of a person. I have nothing against close-ups and seeing every little ingrown hair on someone's ass, but it's also really nice to see an actual photograph with composition where all four sides have meaning and contribute to the whole vision. I think the whole picture / whole person is especially important when marketing personality sites -- what good is it for someone to see a closeup of my areola when it could be *anybody's* areola? The point is to distinguish yourself from everybody else, and that can be difficult when you're reduced to a giant blown-up 1600x1200 pussy.
