Thanks for that info. I will check your page out when I can. I'm still working on the puws for answers to my hosting F.A.Q. page. I'm sooooooooooooo happy the pages are working good. I still have to fix the fact that IE won't display the submenus, but that's already written down on my list of 'things to do'.
I've taken all images out of all my pages except for the client portfolio page. I'm really happy with the smaller download times too.

Jan,
I converted www.pinespc.org from HTML 3.2 to XHTML when I took it over. I use nothing but CSS for presentation, no tables. Exclusive of images I reduced the page from 27k to 8k plus 5k for the css. Total page reduction without removing any images 14k. I then replaced the javascript rollovers (images of text) with css based text links. Took out another 16k for the images.
So without removing a singe 'important' image the page size was reduced by 30k out of the 57-78k they started at. Pages render virtually identically cross browser and cross platform (I've tested with IE 5.2 & Safari on the Mac, IT 6, Opera 6 & 7, NN 6.2 & 4.8 and Mozilla). There is only one page that renders differently and that is the preschool page because NN 4.x can't get the floated images right so I've hidden those images from it. Some people tell me they prefer the page without the images but one of the church members drew them so they stayed. Personally I kind of like them.
