you have to take your picture into paint or photoshop and resize it to thumbnail size. and then you put that code into your code. keep in mind to change all of the names of the pictures to whatever you named them.

alternatively you could do this

but it loads slower.

There is another way to display an image as a thumbnail. Find the width and height of the image, halve each and then display the image at this size, with a link to the real size.

keep in mind though that if you use the same image resized using HTML as the thumbnail, the page with all the thumbnails will take longer to load than it would if you resized them with a graphics program, because the file size would remain the same, and the entire files would have to be loaded on that page.

True. In that case, I would go with Lissa's thumbnail instructions. ;)

Hi!
I think i'll do that:

I think that's the less complicated way for me to do this. I don't have a paint shop thing. Or a photoshop thing.

If i do that, do i have to change the name of the pic? Or is it the same name for the small and the big one?

Oh, and thanks everyone for your replies! You're all cool!

I think it's best to leave thumbnails to open up in the current window, that way if a user wants to open it in a new window they can do so (in IE they can right click or hold shift while clicking, in other browsers there's more options).

This lets the user have control of what they want to see rather than what you want them to see :)

Hi!
ok. Finally, after reading tox's post, i've decided that i don't want pop ups for my thumbnails. I'll let the poeple who goes to my web site to do what they want. :D

And thanks all for the help. You're all cool. :)

Although the question has been answered, you could create an iframe on your page which the large picture is displayed in.

You then have all the thumbnails above it. When the user clicks/hovers over the thumbnail, the larger picture appears in the iframe.

Sound good? Let me know and I will create some instructions about doing this if you need.
