My e-mail program must have played tricks on me.
Here's the correct message.
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"><img
src="pics/FrontCourtHouseSueB.jpg"align="middle"height="95"alt="Built
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"><img
src="pics/FrontCourtHouseSueB-thumb.jpg"align="middle"height="95"alt="Built
1921"></a></td>
As you have it now, the browser is still resizing the thumbnail pics on
the front page.
