Dave,

I've been using Homestead for the past couple of years and haven't had much
problems with them. Regular viewers of the site know that most of the pics
shown have the hidden pic every now and then.

Unfortunately, the Homestead software creates the javascript behind the
scenes. All of the webpages are done through it and there's just no easy way
of getting around it.

Regards,
ACPin & Sons

But that's beside the point.

I think you'll find that the code that's the problem is the code that says
"when my mouse moves over an image, change the image." I assume that Jeremy
can see the main page's images fine (they don't seem to have the same
Javascript).

I have to chime in, though. Please take that code away. Just make them
regular images. Don't have them do anything fancy like change when your
mouse goes over them. It's kind of annoying. It means if you don't *know* to
put your mouse over an image, you'll never see the image, and it's also
impossible (short of viewing the page source or exploring your image cache)
to view the link to the image alone, copy it to your clipboard, etc. Just
make them flat images. That should easily be possible since it looks like
that's how you do the images for the top page.
