cputeq Offline Upload & Sell: Off

So apparently high resolution televisions and monitors are the best thing since sliced bread, and I'm thinking we might want to show off some of our detailed stuff
This thread is for those owners lucky enough to be rocking high resolution monitors (4K+).
I've looked for the old high resolution thread and couldn't find it. Maybe it went away into the abyss or Fred deleted it (if that's the case Fred, please say and I'll delete this thread).
To comply with forum rules and not make viewers' lives painful, maybe a few ground rules are in order:
1) Any camera brand and any lens, though in the spirit of the forum, maybe make it as alt as you can get it :-)
2) Try to keep the images under 1.5MB a piece. I've done A/B testing with a full-quality 4K image vs. a 1.5MB restricted images and at least on my 17.3" laptop monitor, the differences are very minor. This prevents gridlock when downloading a page.
Obviously at these sizes, one cannot use the FM upload function, but external hosting seems to work fine (I personally use Smugmug, as their BBcode link is ridiculously easy to use).
3) 4K resolution means 3840x2160 or thereabouts. Obviously the image should be cropped to how it is best viewed, but unless you're running an iMac 27" or other crazy monitor, try not to exceed these dimension.
4) On the flip side, don't be afraid to go large--try to hit 4K if possible! The best is when you have a great image and go full-screen with your monitor, then click the image and FM's forum display kicks into high gear and you get edge-to-edge goodness
I guess that's about it :-) I'll get started!
