Hi David
I like your picture but as I have written to you before would much
prefer to
see larger images than unbelievable thick borders.
Why ??? ;-)
I'm still intending to look at those borders, when I get time. Maybe
I'll put in some JavaScripted buttons to let you guys set the border
width, then a button that tells me what size you ended up with ;)
I made my files a bit small because I wanted them to be entirely
visible in just about any resolution, without scrolling. For
portrait orientation this is a real problem because there just aren't
that many pixels available.
The problem at the other end of the scale is that those of us with
big, high-res screens end up with a picture that's a bit small. The
smallish size actually doesn't bother me, but I am used to it and I'm
one of those weirdos who doesn't maximise the browser window.
At the moment the photo + big borders can fit into 1024x768 with all
the overheads of the browser's title bar and big navigation buttons.
If I shrink the borders I might be able to enlarge the photo a bit
more... depending on whether I feel like supporting 800x600 which may
be what I had in mind when I settled on my current file sizes.
Cheers,
- Dave
