No problem. I just wrote a demo page myself rather than wasting a lot
of time searching the web. See http://www.cwdjr.net/picsnap/parrot.html
.. If script is turned on, you get a 1600 x 1200 px jpg of over 500 KB
size, and it is scaled using script to fit 90% of whatever screen width
is detected for your browser. If someone has their script turned off,
they get the same image at 400 x 300 px at about 32 KB so that it will
fit most browsers without scrolling with the possible exception of
cellphones and other very small devices. Of course those who have a
very slow dialup connection might not like to wait for a 500 KB image
to download. The large image was obtained by the computer from my
digital camera. The smaller image was obtained from the large one using
PaintShop to reduce the size.
