Depends more on the connection speed and quality. Those on dialup do suffer on the large pictures. With their speed limited to 56K (or whatever it is) a large file takes many many seconds even under optimum conditions--which is rarely the case. With low quality dialup lines, noise causes packet loss so data has to be re-transmitted time and again or gets dropped or corrupted entirely. In dialup or DSL, distance the signal has to travel from the exchange results in a much slower speed and more noise so some may never even come close to the theoretical possible.
