Default Higher res images of submitted posters

It would be great to be able to view the posters in a higher resolution. Viewing at a max of 600px often leaves a bit to be desired.

true, a good size would be around 18x24 @300 dpi.

Not to bust yer balls or anything, but I think Clay picked that size for a reason. It's done the site good for over 7 years.

600px keeps the Rippers away.

Well, kind of.

i dont doubt that he picked for a good reason, im sure 7 years ago it was great when your monitor was 800x600 and the average surfer was not on a broadband connection. anyhow just a suggestion.

I also wish they could be larger, but yes, it would facilitate the ripper-offers that much more.
HEY, HOWABOUT WATERMARKS?

i think if an artist wants their posters to be able to be viewed at a much larger size then 600 pixels it should be allowed.

I also think that clay should charge $20 per poster for this option.
