Default No apologies required!

Your comments were and are regarded only as "constructive" criticsm James. And, in that I asked for that, in offering the site up for review, no offense was taken, nor is any apology necessary. Likewise, hope that I did not offend you in anyway in reply, or in review of your site, as my comments were offered only as such there, and were well intended also.

Most of those neat scripts I use were found on download sites for such goodies, and manipulated slightly to serve my cause. I am guilty only of being capable enough to figure out which line of script to alter. Unfortunately the really neat Javascript fails in Netscape, and as mentioned in my last post, problems were seen in Microsoft XP with DHTML, therefore in designing for Cross Browser performance I've had to dump a considerable amount of failed script. I do try and make it work in as many different facets of the Net as possible, and likewise design around as many different resolutions as possible, unfortunately it's impossible to fit it to all.

As for IE 4.5.... You know, Microsoft does offer free updates, old chap! ...LOL... Don't know that I'd call 4.5 a dinosaur yet, but it's been around awhile.

I still believe, the problem you're seeing with the pictures is related to your monitor resolution setting. And, the fact you're running IE 4.5 lends further to that suspician. That version of Internet Explorer would I believe have been stock in Windows 98, and if my memory serves me correct, 640 x 480 was the default monitor resolution setting therein as well. I honestly don't recall for sure, I just recall always having changed my default setting on 98.

Agreed, and do agree wholeheartedly, on the little fishing bloke. And, again LOL! He too was off a download site, and was in fact a little canoeing bloke, that I altered to make fishing. One pixel at a time, in Paint. If your resolution is set where I believe it to be, when viewed at 640 x 480, the pixels expand greatly, and you are very much correct, he gets really UGLY!

If you're ever in ND, I promise, we will fish until you can't stand no more James! Don't suppose you drink beer, and tell tall tales too?

Doesn't matter, I'll teach that as well, if you don't already know how.

Has been a pleasure chatting!
