Most are perhaps readable, but uglier than desired. There are many unreadable ones as well. Here's an example.

i often see mini-mini screenshots for that reason...

Of course that's what I've done for the mods I've released, but that shouldn't be necessary.

1. Users have larger screens than they did 10 years ago.
In 1998, 700px wide images were large, in 2008 they are small. I don't think even 1% of vbulletin.org visitors still have 800x600 res screens.

2. Why allow 1MB filesize yet limit width to 700px?
If you want to limit width to 700px, you can safely reduce filesize limits to about 100k. I just took a full-screen screenshot on my laptop 1280x800 and saved it as a png in Paint- 129k. I think a 1MB filesize limit combined with a 700px width limit is rather humorous.
