Does anyone know of a Photo hosting site that was show your gallery at full screen? I'm looking for one with either a slide show or singles viewing that will expand to use the full screen without the Explorer Tool bars at top and bottom.

By without toolbars I assume you mean using F11 in IE.

Whether the image will be resized to fill the screen depends on the software used. I use Gallery and have modified it to resize, i.e. fit the image to the window. While you can have it expand, the upsize makes for a "pixelly" image. Best to have the image downsize.

I have my "large" image at 1600x1600 (I never use out of camera size as 8 megapixel images are too big for even broadband). I have "small" images at 800x800 for the 50% of the people still on dialup.

Software I use is "Gallery" which is freeware and can be run on your server or a hosted site.http://gallery.menalto.com/ ....but as I said, I modified it to resize for both slideshows and single images...it does not do the resizing "out of the can".
