Hi Mike!!

I was poking around your website and noticed your images have not be optimized 
for the Internet.  For instance  
http://fatherswithforeignbabies.us/photos/saintthomas1.jpg .  

You'll want to make your images smaller in visual size and in file size.

I hope this doesn't seem rude but why? I mean it is the proper size on the
web page.

Some data connections are faster than.others, and if you want to reach the
widest possible market, you should build for the slowest users.  Think
phones, or old donated library computers.

If you have a limited amount of bandwidth available, sending a 50K 500x400
JPEG is a lot less costly than sending a 1.3M 2500x2000 JPEG.  Also, the
faster the page loads, the more page users seem to like it.  (5 seconds?  But
I want it NOW!!1!)

To reach as many people as possible, you should also remember that slow
could refer to mental acuity as well as download velocity :-P

There are people who still have dialup.  I understand it is still a lot of 
people.  They might not want to visit your website if it loads too slowly for 
them.    

Google gimp optimize image for website  The second site listed is 
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/optimize-images-web-gimp/  I did not read the 
page, however it appears to be on target.

I was just going to go in there and manually alter the photos but that is
probably a website I could use for this!
