Hi,
Is there a "proper" way to create thumbnails? Basically, what I do is
transfer the 640x480 image from my camera to my computer. Then I create
another version of the image (say, 50% of the original 320x240). Finally, on
my page I'll have the smaller image displayed, and clicking on it will open
the original, larger picture.
In doing so, I literally have two sets of pictures - which takes up storage
space, but saves the page-viewer time if they don't want to load a page full
of large pictures.
Any advice? Maybe there isn't a "proper" way. Thanks in advance.
Bryan
