Thanks alot for the info Larry.  Obviously I am more of an HTML newbie than I
try and admit.  I noticed the slow loading myself and plan on doing something
about it.  Unfortunately I had to go to Dallas for work and won't have time to
do anything for a few days.  I am also still working on the best techniques for
Digital Photography as well and I am planning on taking some new pictures.  I
will definitly be doing something about the picture size though.

Thanks alot for your help.

Eric

Very stunning models. Nice work. However your pages load painfully slow. Excruciatingly slow, even. I believe you have made the same error that Paul Foster did with his GMLTC thumbs. Here's a snippet of your source. <A (...) (27 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.publish)
