100% width is *always* 100% width. However, the width depends on how wide
the browser window is opened to, and the maximum width depends on screen
resolution - not everybody uses the same screen resolution as you, and not
everybody opens their browsers to fill the screen.
Screens are measured in pixels, so resize your images using pixels, not
inches.
For a browser opened to 800px wide, the maximum width for an image is
760px. The maximum width for an image is whatever you want it to be - but
bear in mind your users on slow connections (wider images take longer to
download), using small screens (think netbooks), or using a browser with
opened sidebars. They may get horizontal scrollbars, which should be
avoided. Also remember if your images are valuable - you cannot protect
them.
Always use an image editor to do anything with an image. FrontPage is not
an image editor - and resizing with the curser is likely to make the images
blurred or muddy. One of the reasons for resizing is to reduce the
filesize that has to be downloaded. Using the curser may make the images
smaller to look at, but it's still the full size image behind the scenes.
