Body work on MKI's and MKII's

[amalventano1 at tds.net (Allyn)]

Julie,
I think your site might be very painful for anybody less than a high speed link.
Actually, it even opens slowly on my 3mbit DSL. I figured out why though:

The 'small' images on the various main pages are actually being downloaded in
their entirety and then resized by the browser on the users side.

One image is 1656x1242, but the code is shrinking it as follows:
<P align=center><IMG style="WIDTH: 279px; HEIGHT: 164px"
src="dsrust1.jpg"></P></td>

The initial page would load MUCH faster if, for example, dsrust1.jpg was
actually 279x164, and the clickable link then went to the much larger image.

Not sure if this was the intention or not, but I figured I'd suggest it at
least...
HTH
