When you click on the image, it looks great. Your thumbnails need
resized, too.
Take the first one. You have
<a href="pics/FrontCourtHouseSueB.jpg
<
1921"></a></td>
If you resize it again to a 95px height and name it
FrontCourtHouseSueB-thumb.jpg and use this code
<a href="pics/FrontCourtHouseSueB.jpg
<
1921"></a></td>
As you have it now, the browser is still resizing the thumbnail pics on
the front page.

Thank you, Dale. I reduced all the pics to 800x600. It does not
seem to
have helped. Do they need to be even smaller?
