There are several ways to view pictures and others will
respond to this too, I'm sure. The easiest way to do it
is to mount the two prints side by side, only reverse them
left to right. This way, they can be easily "cross-viewed"
and differences in size from monitor to monitor are less
of a problem for folks. You could also make them anaglyphs
(red/blue) but at a loss of color information. Or you
could use the JPS format. I'll let someone else talk
about that.

Personally, I would not make either frame any wider than
about 300 pixels. If you do, the stereo pair will be over
600 pixels wide and it will not fit on a standard VGA screen.
Higher resolution setups will have no problem. One handy
trick that I have learned is, when coding your page, "size"
your image to "width=100%". If you do this, anyone viewing 
the page can adjust the width of their browser to make the
views any size they need.
