Generally speaking we are like one happy family right? I mean Nifty the TGD share the same server space, compete for the same hardware resources, etc. But over on nifty the icon requirements allows for a 24K icon to be uploaded while here it is only 6K.
For your average 125K icon, 6K is somewhat small, 10K would be reasonable, 24K is obviously "nifty." Fortunately I have a program that allows me to resave te jpg under a lower quality but somehow I don't think that we have that great a storage issue problem.
