You can tell that Gregg is fast because his pic is so blurry (or maybe it's just a slow camera) .

The quality of their pictures is always really low... I was wondering if they use a camcorder or sumthin ... and just take still shots but ... usually those are even MORE pixelized ... (the quality is just low enough to make me wonder tho')

Hey Bill, what's up with your avatar? It looks like a pic from an old Nintendo game.

I don't know. Please be more specific. Nintendo, Super Nintendo, or Nintendo 64? :D
I seriously don't know....it looks okay through my pc/monitor. Does it really look like shit?

Bill, there's no shame in being passed by Lance Armstrong, that guy's fast. There's no need to hide your face by pixellating your avatar.

Hey Bill, at least you didn't have a roller blader riding your ass....

Sean has to heavily compress them for the web. Bandwith is expensive and his photos are some one of the most popular pages.
He uses a Kodak 2 megapixel. Don't know the model.

That would explain a lot ... Kodak's are "ok" but tend to suffer at capturing color, on all levels ... (like canon does blues vividly, and sony tends to be better at reds, although the newer sonys are pretty well balanced) ...
What I'm seeing is not compression for bandwidth ... it's just a general low quality to the camera ... just the fact that he's using a 2 megapixel will also do that, because he has so much less to work with when downsizing ...
(i'm not saying the pictures (framing etc) themselves are bad, just the quality)
