If a straight image file is displayed, (no html), it really doesn't 
matter.  My browser resizes it automaticaly.  With html code, say 1500x1100.

Minimum verticle size 800 Maximum vertical 1100.
Minimum horizontal 800 Maximum horizontal 1500.

The browser can add moire artifacts when resizing.

That depends on how good the first image was, (more to the point a large 
enough image invites a print if it's good I might feel inclined to make 
one for personal use).
