Interesting, looks OK one of my system: Mac OSX 10.4, Firefox 3.0
Alfa, but on my XP box running Firefox 2 I can see what you are
talking about.  I think Frontpage is creating a web page that is
resizing of the image, i.e., displaying it at a percent of the full
size.  The browser is then doing the resize which can make it look
poor.  If she wants to fix this you should resize the image in PS, or
another image processing program and make sure that Frontpage displays
the image at 100%.

 When you view the site, the image has, as you see, wrinkles kinda on
 logo especially on the Scrabble tiles
 when I click on the logo jpg file ito view it only, it looks fine

 Can you write me really simple instructions for her on how to correct
 it? or is there not a way to do it?
 I don't use or know how to use front page but I'm guessing it isn't
 working because the specs are
 placing the image in a set boundary line and therefore slightly changing
 it.

I thought it was doing that slightly by putting in borders...

I looked at it in explorer just now and it was still funky - then I 
clicked on properties
saw then on the image, and saw how much it had been reduced... more than 
it looked
like to me at first.  so I sent her another file newly created from my 
master using the
size she had scaled to on the vertical side (434 pixels) -

That should do it.  - thought I don't think it will be high on her list 
of things to do right yet.

thanks much for your help

Always a danger of using software like Frontpage or Golive to create
a web page.  Images resized in a browser never give appealing results.

The rendering engine in you browser is resizing the Jpeg for display and 
not doing a very good job of it.  Resize the image to the display size 
in a good editing program like Photoshop, etc. to fit the size required 
rather than have the HTML determine the size in the img tag.

Not only that, but if there are a lot of images on the page they can take 
forever to load.

Here is an example of bad web design (if you are on dial-up don't click on

Yes, that's bad and there is no evidence of Frontpage.

I didn't realize she resized it at first...  I just put the original 
back in photoshop and
then sent it to her and told her to set it to 100%  

she hasn't answered me yet  -   ironically, I sent here 3 different 
sizes to start with
and told her I could resize if none of them worked... the sizing down 
was so subtle
between my original and her code that I had not at first seen that the 
size was different

sigh
