I can understand not wanting to link to hi-res photos that can be stolen. This seems like a good compromise. Not for every photo but for the occasional one, such as this.
Great photo btw

She didn't even know how to get the SD card out of the camera. Since I don't have a K10D it took me a while to work it out too - she didn't have the handbook anywhere handy for me to read

My friend is a total beginner and has not yet got any PP software (apart from that which came with the camera - which she hasn't loaded). So to encourage her and to get good looking photos straight out of the camera it may be a good idea to set sharpening in camera.
As she gains confidence and understands more she will no doubt change it.

I'll let you know how we get on and if she is happy with the results. I know she was beginning to think she had been sold a lemon.

A friend of mine bought a K10D a while ago. She bought it at a big elctrical retailers, and either the salesman saw her coming, or more likely was as ignorant about it as she is.
Anyway she bought the camera with the zoom kit lenses and a 6Gb card , plus loads of other extras.
I finally got to see some of her photos after we'd been for a walk together. Since she posted them online I assumed she had reduced them for the net.
No, they were shot at the lowest Jpeg possible and looked horrible. Apparantly the salesman set it at that and said it was fine and she could get loads of photos on her card.
She also still has 1.0 firmware.
Anyway, I am going to see her tomorrow to help her update the firmware and set up the camera for jpegs. She has never had an SLR before, so I am going to try to teach her a few basics of photography while I'm there. She doesn't even understand the concept of RAW at the moment so Im not going to go there
Not having a K10D I do not know the best menu settings for Jpegs with regard to saturation etc etc. Obviously I will set it to the best quality jpegs, but what else should I change and to what level?

Refresh button brings up random photo and random quotes, just as you said.
