I Agree.

Yes, but that was only in casse you'd like to illustrate how the page would 
look if the images were all the same size.

I totally agree.

If you have a mixed source of picture sizes, than you allways default to the 
lowest resolution 800x600. Because resizing the 800x600 picture into 
1024x768 is a waste and you get distinctive (same low) quality of pictures. 
The problematic case is portrait aspect ratio 600x800 or 768x1024, in this 
casse the best thing to do is to add a black background or other suitable 
color for the layout to the picture and make them all 800x800 - they'll be 
looking great esspeciully win black background pixels added.
