FIX THIS!! Everything should fit 800x600 :-)

Sounds like someone whose eyesight has gotten so bad that they are having
to use the computer equivalent of the "big print" books... grin

Since you mentioned it, I figured I would check out the site... My laptop is
running 1024x768 (physical screen resolution limit) and is acceptable to me
from a screen real estate standpoint... I don't like having to go down to
800x600 for some older laptop screens... The only thing that can be said for
800x600 is that it beats the 'ell out of 640x480... Of course, 640x480 beats
the 'ell out of the PDA screens... I've recently been working on a GPS
program for a PDA-type device and I find it difficult to display all the
information that I want to display at the same time on the real estate that
I have available on it...

Even at 1024x768, his images are too large... Perhaps he was wanting to
create a single page that could be printed and posted as flyers around the
airports... In my opinion, he should rethink this... Layouts that look good
on flyers do not necessarily look good as web pages... For a web page, I
would suggest smaller images and creating a hyperlink on the picture /
thumbnail to bring up the larger image... The smaller images should be true
thumbnails, not just using the 'width' and 'height' attributes to resize it
at the client side... If you do it that way, the full image still has to be
transferred to the client even though only a lower resolution version of it
is being displayed...

Having everything in all caps is not exactly good style either... One could
argue that what is supposed to be capitalized is not and what isn't, is...
For example, he mentions "Mp3 PLAYER"... This should have been "MP3" and the
rest either not capitalized or perhaps only the first letter of "player"
capitalized... One other question is whether the aircraft is really
currently being "ANNEALED"? If so, what happened to require this? grin

One other bit of information that would be nice is to post where the plane
is located... A quick search of the FAA database shows that Kevin is located
in Riverside, CA, but it might be nice to include that bit of information on
the page... It's also possible that a voice phone number might be useful...
