Slightly Off Topic: Scanning Pictures for Display

[Kirynos]

I'm putting some pictures I have up for display for family members that have internet access. I'm wondering what's a good file size for a picture (or DPI) for people to see it on their computers. I know when I compare the picture to what I've scanned in, the quality just isn't there. This is at 300 DPI or about 250kb.

Any suggestions on how to improve picture quality?

:confuse:

Screen resolution is 72dpi. If isn't going to be printed, and displayed on the screen only 72 is all you need.
