Excellent! Except: On my monitor (1024x768), the "Photo Montage Example" creates a very unwanted effect. It looks like an ugly automatic html-rearrangement at first, seen very often (i.e. in Wikipedia, spiegel.de-printiing version), but you seem to have used a table (didn't bother to look at the source, but must be). Anyway, a horizontal scroll bar is introduced, the whole design intention (to show good design) is lost. The idea probably is to not be boring by adjusting all pictures to the left, switching from left to right instead. But this is just a bad habit and shallow thinking. You want the eye to compare three versions which are not presented under equal conditions in the first place. It's a difference if you put a picture left or right. The same reasoning applies to the table example, for that matter. Html-design is another thing, though. I understand you want to educate print design with the help of the monitor. Werner
