1280?  By 16?? and many programs cannot use 

anything over 800 by 1200 pixals.

As for digital cameras the new ones while there pictures 

are great, many programs can not use then as the resolution 

is to big and you cannot get them down to a useable resolution. 


One must be aware of what they are doing and what they are going to do with their photos -- if you want a small photo for the internet, adjust the pixel size on the camera "before" one takes the picture (this is something that all but the $10 cameras do) 

Even though I can take an 18 MB photo, that doesn't mean that I do.  Sometimes I want a hi-res photo, like if I'm copying real photographs, but the vast majority of pics I take are a few hundred KB or less. It's my choice -- 240 KB makes a nice image on my monitor .
