Colby,
Were some of those using film? The grain (or grain reproduction) is stunning.
 
I went out today and tonight, took a few shots around Elgin. Shot in both RAW and jpeg. Lightroom 4: I'm not very good at editing but getting better. Haven't figured out how to save an image to jpeg and shrink it down to an internet friendly size. I should have an entry here soon.
 
In the Export dialog box, the third thing down says File Settings. Select .jpg from the dropdown option to get it in that format.

Then, a bit further down, in Image Sizing, enter some number for the Resize To Fit and check Longside. What does is make the longest side of the image whatever you tell it. (since I upload full size images to SM, from there I can select the size which displays here) If you go 800pixels, that will be 8" on the longest side and not overwhelm most folks screens.
