Lots of monitors are set to display an image no larger than 640 pixels
in width; it's this longer of the two dimensions that matters when
displaying images in "landscape" format. These days a better default
value would probably be 800x600, which would work on most reasonably
current systems with a 15" monitor.
I find that on my home computer with a 15" display, that an image width
of 784 pixels will fill _exactly_ the horizontal image area with
Netscape.
If you have a system with limited video resources, I think you're better
off setting the image depth as high as you can--at least to "thousands"
of colors--than you are setting it to more pixels.
