As for the thumbnail size, I had no idea that I could control that on Photo.Net! I just upload the JPG files, sized at around 80-150 KB for the most part, and Photo.Net creates the thumbnails automatically. I guess I will have to poke around the site and see where I can make the thumbnails smaller. On the other hand, I do like the thumbnails fairly large so that the viewer can decide which ones s/he wants to click on. As I said to Steve, what I will likely do is to split the London gallery into two.
