Thanks John!
I am in the process of breaking up the pages and moving photos and scanned
images. When I first started building the pages I didn't have much
information.
But they are growing, I have started putting the cemetery photos in thumb
nail tables. That has helped alot! I will tell her that is probably the
problem. And I will work on switching the images.
I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something else causing the problem.

Gina, I just went to your marriage a cemetery index pages. On the
marriage
records, I went to scanned images and it took my computer about 5 minutes
to download the marriage cetificates. Someone with AOL and a Mac that may
also be a slower computer than mine (although that is getting harder to be
slower every day!), may have problems simply because your HTML files
(pages) are too big. A suggestion to help us slower people, especially
with dial-ups, is to make a page with the records that have been scanned
as
links - quick to download, then each record is on a separate page.
The
visitor only has to download those images they want and only one at a
time. This will decrease the chances of crashes or systems timing out. I
hope I am making sense of what I am trying to say.
