Larry I checked your site and those images are HUGE. They
can be ten times smaller at least and still look the same.
The easiest thing for you to do is download irfanview. I
don't see the orig post on this so I'm not sure what you
are having problems with. You can obviously upload images
since they are at your site now and I assume you did that
(I'm a bit confused on that). So, I assume you want them
to take up less file space. ? I made some changes to one
photo at your site. It's orig size was 146,215 bytes
(146K), plus it was 'tagged' wrong, meaning it only shows
up as 326x266 pixels sq, yet it's actual size is 980x700.
You should resize that using irfanview to 326x266, save it
using a greater compression ratio, then upload it. At this
first link is your orig photo, note how physically large it
is. This is it's actual size. The second link is after it
was resized to about the same size as it appears on your
site. It's only 23k at the second link.

You do this to all the images and the pages will load much
faster and take up MUCH less space.
You can get Irfanview on my software page
http://orpheuscomputing.com/software.html Just 'drag' any
image to it's shortcut on your desktop, then use the
toolbar under 'image' to make any changes. You can make
thumbnails with it as well, I don't recall right off hand
to do that, but instead you can just resize it to about 100
pixels or so.

That link is simply resizing it to a thumb size, making a
real thumb will give it a border. These images were saved
in the orig format of a jpg using a 'save quality' of 75 on
the slider bar for jpeg quality.
You just upload these the way you did your orig images.
You have to change the HTML code to reflect these changes
(if you change the names of any images or dimensions). I'm
not familiar with some of the data in those HTML tags for
images on your page, but part of them I am;
<img src="/larryb441/images/larry's fish.jpg" width=326
height=256></htpdiv></td>
<td width=1 height=256></td>
for one, you don't want to have a space anywhere in the
image name or ' marks. The width and height tags you can
see, they are in pixels. Irfanview will tell you the size
after you resize an image and then you change them
accordingly in your image tags. To make the image
clickable, you'd add this;
<a href="larrys-fishlarge.jpg"><img
src="/larryb441/images/larrys-fish.jpg" width=326
height=256></htpdiv></td>
<td width=1 height=256></td>
So in this case, if larrys-fish.jpg was a thumb, it would
be clickable and it would go to the larger image. Of
course in this example above, you would have to name it
larrys-fishlarge.jpg

I have a master index that is linked to thumbnail images
and linked to larger
images all in HTML. There are 4 pages with 5 to 22 images
and I just do not
know how to load them on a web site. First I have to have a
web site. (I did
this with Thumber if you are familar with this software.)
The thing with AOL is they give you a free site but I think
it is limited as
to how much you can put on it. My site is geared to Fishing
now and you
should be able to see it by going here <A
HREF="http://hometown.aol.com/larryb441/index.html";>Home
Page</A>. Remember I
am way over my head so far. I hoped you just pulled down a
file and then load
it into you page but I guess it does not work that way.
Thanks for your reply and help.
