I think I've got the page formatted so that it "scales" to different
screen
resolutions without requiring side-scrolling to see everything.

A VERY good point- The horizontal scroll bar is definitely "taboo" as
discussed the very first day of Web Design school.

Building to 800 by 600 is still recommended and setting your tables to a
"percentage" will fill a larger browser size too.

Another common problem is "constraining" an image to display smaller that it
really is. Humongous file sizes and long download times result from this
very bad practice. I see your thumbnails are displayed actual size- (and are
actually a quite small file size) very good!

Your site looks great- keep up the good work!

No more side-scrolling, I hope!

I think I've got the page formatted so that it "scales" to different

screen
resolutions without requiring side-scrolling to see everything. Fixing it
involved converting everything from plain text to "tables" that can be set
to a percentage of size -- thanks to everyone who suggested that process.

Please check it out at http://www.alexisparkinn.com/rec_aviation.htm, and
let me know if it now looks okay under your screen resolutions?

Thanks!
