Good shots.. I like the second one better, but as witchy says.. They could be bigger.. You should make them at least 640x480....

Nice shots. If the first ones you posted were 100% crops, anything larger will be blurry.

If you have originals that are larger, you may be able to get larger images that are clear. There are two ways to reduce file size - make the image smaller, or reduce jpg quality. Your editing software should allow you to adjust jpg compression so your file isn't as large.
