Maintaining Size and Quality in FB Posted Images

Technorati Profile http://rpc.technorati.com/rpc/ping
Jay Branscomb publishes wonderful selections of political cartoons on FB.  He also makes sure they show up full screen when clicked on.  Here is the way I do the same thing:

To see the images full sized. Most folks just reduce the dimensions in Photoshop until it goes below the FB limits of 450 -500 K in file size. Jay seems to have mastered the trick of reducing the quality slightly, while achieving a good file size, as he selects how to save the jpg. Looks great, and you can easily show image to everyone in the room, and really, on a computer screen, lower the quality does next to nothing, except to complex photographs. Graphic artwork survives nicely.
