#2: Initial revision
I use the "medium" size in Wordpress, which is 500 px width and height proportional as required by the image. This fits across my entire column (depending on the monitor/window size/browser of course). That's a center column of content with menu columns on either side. It's a bit bigger than many other sites use, but it works for me. I may change it if I change my Wordpress theme. What's best for the size of the picture depends on the theme or website layout. As you've pointed out, another important issue is platform. Wordpress automatically scales graphics. I just checked my blog from my phone and the graphics are the appropriate size (though some get blurry when enlarged...even if they're still smaller than the crisp photos on my large desktop monitor). In general it's better to use relative sizes and not absolute ones. This is true for font size as well. What's gorgeous and perfect on your setup is impossible to read on someone else's.
