if you are using sofware, I have found that a farily useable size for photos is

500px width x whatever height

the reason is, a picture this size will show up on all monitors without having to sidescroll, even the 15" ones. You can go larger, but I am not sure how much, I switched to a 19" widescreen monitor. Larger also means a larger file to store.

Keep aspect ratio when resizing. Also cropping the photo will provide a much nicer image within the 500px width size.
