    I am new to DNN and I have made a skin based on a site my client pointed me to.  I think it turned out nice.  If you go to Photos you will see a sample photo gallery.  The site is very large, 1000 pixels wide.  Client wanted large photos but I am not sure if it is a good idea.  Client has a 26 inch wide-screen monitor.

    Hello,

    Looks good. The photos that are on there look ok on 1024 x 768 resolution. I wouldn't go any larger than that though so the majority of viewers can see the images without scrolling. I would suspect that your clients customers would have up to date technology so I wouldn't worry about 800x600 monitors for instance.

    What did you use to display the photos? it looks good,

    Thanks,

    I used Ultra Gallery from BizModules. It is really nice software. THank you for the input. The site is designed to be in at least 1024 x 768 and the pictures are set to be no wider than 900 and no taller than 525 (I think).

    Did the pictures load fast enough for you in the UK?
