And the drawbacks are...? Why do you say this? Here's my motivation:
I made a 'home' page with links to pages containing the images. Each of
the image pages contain 'next', 'previous' buttons so it can function as
a slide show, which is why I can't make the home page link directly to
the pictures. I want to put all this on a CD to give to friends, but I
want to include the FULL resolution images in case they want to make
large prints, which is why I don't want to set any particular image
size. ALSO, the images will appear full-screen (IE maximized) for
whatever display resolution they have.
