I have not looked at your code, Dan, but your biggest pic seems
to be 713 px wide. So, you could just make a container div and
fix it at 713 px wide. You could also look into max width. You
could also throw out Frontpage and read some html/css tutes (soon
to be recommended to you).

I would tend to do this though for limited parts where I don't
want the text to be so much wider than the pic, set a width on
the <p>s that the text are in.

<p style="width: 713px">Let this start to wrap at the pic
width....</p>
