When I take a photo with my DSLR Nikon D5000, the size of the image comes to around 5MB and I know that with my point and shoot camera also it does not come to any lesser than 3MB. Definitely this is quite good to keep the images in the same size for use but when it comes to on-line sharing I don’t think this is the size that is required. I guess mosr of the time 1024×768 is sufficient. Even if you are sending the images in email, you cannot afford to send a lot of images of this size even with a gmail account.

I have taken this opportunity to optimize the blog also. Now the page loading time should be much lesser and you should not be seeing any issues with respect to the site performance or un-availability. If you do see some issues, leave me a comment or contact me through contact me page.

How often you wished that you could change the theme for firefox without restarting. Well sometime back Mozilla came up with Light weight themes called personna’s but if that is not sufficient for you and you still want to change the theme and do not want to restart then you should install this theme.
Once you install this theme, you will not note any change (Don’t forget to restart after installing the theme.)
