Hi Valerie
No Disrespect intended, however may I suggest that you use "thumbnails" of your graphics?
There is no doubt of the Great Beauty of your photographs and your Talent as a Photographer.
Personally, I like your Photos very much.
To my way of thinking though, it is an unnecessary waste of bandwidth........
May I suggest that you try this......
(Here is an example, your wonderful photograph of the San Antonio River Walk as posted earlier today)
(BTW, I love the River Walk. One of my all time favorite places :)

If you will.......
Click the Pic
It will "Open" in another window so as to be convenient to everyone without a waste of "bandwidth"

(There are still many "out there" who do not have access to DSL or even ISDN, much less T1. Give them a Chance too. They are some of our greatest supporters. Like "Good 'ol 1John"
(See FR Memorial Wall for info)

Sharks and fish swim at the Okinawa Chura Aquarium in southern Japan. Fish did not grow legs to colonize the land as previously thought, but to prop themselves up underwater 370 million years ago, according to US scientists who published a study.(AFP/JIJI PRESS/File)

I'm too tipsy to post any more tonight anyway. I might post some of the not-for-FR pictures by accident. *L*
