My 3 images at the top of my page show up on my monitor but don't show up on my  laptop. Is there a setting I have wrong? In other words it shows on some pc's but not others.

Thanks
Ryan

Does the same thing here on my PC at work. What size monitor do you use on your PC vs those on your laptops? I think it is an auto re-sizing thing - which changes the way your page looks on different screens. If you want absolute controll over your site's appearance, you just need to pick a fixed size you think acceptable for your site and hard code it into the page, then adjust all the photos and tables to fit everything the way you want. I use 1000 pixels wide on my page.

Desktop is a 23 inch and laptops are 15. How would I correct this. Auto sizing sounds like the issue.

This is how I did it using Ken's scripts:

Set my page to use the "narrow" view on one specific css color scheme.
Disabled the change option.
Edited all the "div" Table width parameters in that css file to my preference.

Of course the trade off is that you are limited to only one color scheme, but that's the point anyway - for you, not the viewer to control the page design. But you could allow different color schemes if you wanted to take the time to edit every css to contain the same table width parameters.

Everything shows fine except for the 3 images at the top of my home page. Must be something within that setting that is wrong because everthing else is right.

It shows on Firefox on the laptops but not IE 9. So what is causing it not to show on IE 9?

Ryan,

I have your page showing in Firefox 14, IE9 in compatibility mode and Google Chrome 19.  All 3 images show just fine in all of them.
