You should upload a smaller size and host the full resolution one offsite, or in scraps or something. The small view is too difficult to take in the detail, but the full view is so massive that you can only make out like parts of characters. I can't fit a single character entirely on the screen when it's in full view, and FA doesn't let you manually resize it. It's particularly frustrating when it's a comic page and the thumbnail version is too tiny, but the full view version feels like you're holding a comic book an inch away from your eyes. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/15877276 This page is very difficult to read, because you can't see it all at once. The other pages are a good size, but that one specifically is just way too big. For the covers, you should aim for a size where full view takes up a large portion of the stream, but doesn't require scrolling. If you need to scroll to see parts of the picture, it's too big. A cover is meant to be able to be seen all at once, not in pieces.
That's kind of a pain for people that are trying to read through it page by page. The Ctrl + and - mess with the entire browser. It's just poor flow for a comic to need to scroll like that. I'm sure some people also want to see full resolution, but that's why I suggested adding a link in the description that leads to the gigantic file ones. The "main" link to the comics should be the one that's best for reading. The giant resolution ones are pretty poor for reading. In fact, at the lowest setting using Ctrl - I still can't see the whole picture.
Ultimately it's up to Bolzan how he wants to do it. I'm just saying that, as a reader, if a comic is a bit of a hassle to read comfortably, I usually just end up skipping it altogether, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. There's a reason popular comic strips are all roughly the same size, because it provides ease of viewing.
