Viewing images

I was having an interesting thought about the way I view sideshows and photos. If the thumbnail is bigger as 200 px width we can reasonably view images and know what they look like. I would not call it a nice way to compliment the artist and it's not a nice first impression of the work to say the least. Some even use a 100px preview because that still gives the impression you really know what your looking at. I do think this stops being reasonable at 200px even I keep thinking that I have seen the image before. But looking at it in full screen is like a whole different shot of it.

I view the photo's I've taken in different sizes and the smallest features make the best photo's. So the best pictures I made look horrible in thumbnail format. I had a lot of though on the subject on how to trick that subconscious of ours into thinking the image has not been seen.


I made the preview thumb so small it didn't show a lot more as the 3 main colors, this actually worked but sucked about as much. I now created something new! I think it's awesome! This shows the image and almost makes me angry they are all out of focus, but this actually pays off in load time 400% ! And the joke is back on the subconscious ha-ha. Expecting something like "clicking the image now but it makes me mad" going on deep down in the scull.
