I have a fairly large screen at work (crt 21" I think) and I only saw the large pics one at a time. I didn't see anything either side until I got to the vertical one. Starting it was a bit odd too. I first got a black screen with SimpleViewer requires Macromedia Flash. Get Macromedia Flash. If you have Flash installed, click to view gallery across the top of the page "Macromedia Flash" and "click to view gallery" were dark blue on black so I couldn't read the words. Anyway, I clicked to view gallery (as I have flash installed) and off it went.
I liked the series of photos but didn't like this gallery presentation much wendy On 1/23/07, Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > There area a couple of problems with that, Adam. > > - Even though the display space is 750 pixels tall, when you account > for menu bars, window structure etc, the image size is too large. > Better to err on the safe side and make the display images a bit > smaller, around 550 to 600 pixels tall at max looks better on a > 1280x800 or particularly a 1024x768 display in a typical browser > window IMO.
