Setting screen resolution

R

robert

The web address is www.orinc.com. I realize that the download time not
related to the screen resolution, so I guess my question has two parts.
First, is there a quick solution for changing the resolution in order to
make the web page easier for users to view? Second, how do I optimize the
pictures so that a page will download faster?

I spent a lot of time creating my web page which has about 200 individual
pages and even more photos. I just learned that the resolution is set well
above the 800 x 600 resolution level and that the page(s) take a long time to
load. What is the best course of action to take that will make my web site
more user friendly?

Ok,

Check this out when you have some time:
http://thepattysite.com/window_sizes1.cfm

Your main table is fixed width at 1022 which is too wide for most
viewers...if you want to accomodate most viewport sizes you can go with:

Fixed width table under 750px wide left justified

Fixed width table under 750px wide center justified

Flexible table/collapsing table/fluid table which can adjust to give the
illusion that the webpage actually fits any viewport. This takes a little
math and some tricky placement to make it work correctly.

The images on your index page are fine as far as file size. But, a good
(actually excellent) program to resize, batch process, optimize, rename
image files is IrFanview (also FREE). http://www.irfanview.net

one more thing that can make things barf on some servers...spaces in file
names (the will appear as %20) you may want to start renaming files as you
go along.
