For me, the pictures stayed small size but took forever to load and I
have a reasonable DSL connection. I was going to suggest she make
thumbnails for the main page which link to full-sized pics (if that's
possible to do).

Is this aol service for websites free?

First off, I apologize for cross posting -- at least that's what I
think I did since I see the RCTN people over at RCTQ and vice versa.
VBS -- I'm a dolt sometimes!!!
Next, the website is not an aol thing nor is it free. I'm pretty
sure DD said she pays $12.00/month to Web.com, the people who host the

Well if they don't link the thumbnails, maybe she should change to
Yahoo hosting, my site is with them, $10 per month, more space than I
will ever use and all sorts of goodies. It has only once gone down in
over a year, very stable.

This is still cross posted, I took it out again.

I'll tell DD about the Yahoo hosting site. I think the only reason
she went with Web.com is because someone told her about it. Like me,
she's pretty much a novice about this sort of stuff. Fortunately, I
actually sort of understood the point that Bruce and Anne made. I'm not
sure if DD has any sort of photo editing program but I will tell her
that she needs to make the file size smaller.
When I spoke with her about all of this, she told me that the $12/mo
doesn't allow for clickable thumbnails that lead to full size photos.
I make sure to tell her to check out the Yahoo site and see if that is
something available with them. I TOLD her she needed to have photos
that show a close up of the detail on the more "entertaining" cakes --
the one with the bumble bees for instance. Anyway, thanks to everyone
for the input and thanks you Sheena for eliminating the cross posting

She doesn't need a photo editing programme. If she looks under
Microsoft Power Toys for XP, one of the toys is a photo resizing tool.
She would simply click on the pic and reduce to smallest size, she
would still have her original one, but it would add the small one.

The medium size it produces is ideal for binary groups, just the right
size.
