# This is cool!
But the filesize is a little bit big... You could optimise it or whatever. The FAQ has stuff on filesizes.

*feels like nasty teacher*

# Looks fine to me, still.
I considered a Hannibal from the A Team style 'I love it when a plan comes together' comment, but thought better of it.

# More nasty teachering...
So, if you look at the FAQ, you'll see that the limit for normal image files (as opposed to animated .gifs) is only 50 KB. And people do get a bit worked up about keeping down the fliesizes because otherwise the board takes forever to load.

Hope this helps!

And if a picture looks crap at 50k, you may have to make it smaller in actual size. So when you're making something, bear this in mind if it has any little features like text that need to be legible.
