This would be a horrible idea. It would be so abuseable to delete pictures
from people that for some reason are disliked, or content that someone
objects to. Can you imagine how quickly Brendan Powell Smith's Bible
pictures would be voted off...

On the subject of overly large pictures - I would love to see pictures over
some size re-sampled to say 800x600, though the original should also be
available (sometimes it's nice to be able to zoom in). But if the default
was to display maximum 1024x768 or some such, with larger pictures
re-sampled down, that would be way cool...

As to uploading blurry pictures and such - I have to admit, I used to spend
time going through all my pictures, re-sizing them to 800x600 or smaller or
so (sometimes by scaling, some times by cropping). These days, I just don't
have the time, so they get uploaded as is (though at least I get them all
rotated right - primarily because the MS Windows picture browser
automatically saves rotated pictures if you rotate while browsing, so it's
just a matter of a minute or two. Sometimes I will also kill a horrible
picture, however, I generally prefer to keep all the pictures taken, and
since I'm not making a new set of pictures before uploading, there's a catch
(I suppose I could avoid including bad pictures in the zip before
uploading).
