Thanks, Henning.

For giving viewers a choice of size, Smugmug is even better than the  
LUG Gallery, because it offers several sizes as opposed to just two. I  
usually post the links straight to the Original size, but if you close  
that, you return to the standard display. If you then move your cursor  
to the right side of the image, a little menu pops up, giving you a  
selection of Small, Medium, Large, X-Large, X2-Large, X3-Large and  
Original, along with an Info button to see the Exif data.

Cheers,
Nathan
