Jennie - 

We load jpg images into TMS at 2000 pixels / 300 dpi - file sizes up to
12 mb. before compression - without any noticeable performance hit.

Dear TMS Users:
I was wondering what size images you all load to TMS. We're
experimenting with large image files and are trying determine how large
we can go without sacrificing performance.

Until now our images for TMS have been small, less than 5MB, 150DPI. 

Thanks in advance.
