Hello. I am in desperate need of some help. I made a website, but on IE and AOL, the graphics are too big, and get cut off.

I made my site viewing it through Mozilla, and it fit perfectly.

This is the site Naming Babies (http://tastethequeen.net/nb)

Is there anything I can do to shrink the graphics, or do I have to make a new layout? Thanks so much!

I'm on IE and AOL (PC) and the graphics fit fine. Could perhaps be due to my resolution, however -- I have a 17" monitor set to 1152 x 864.

Hmm...maybe you're on a smaller resolution, and the site is designed to be larger than the available screen-size. It's a problem I've encountered before.

Also, if you wish to shrink your graphics down a bit, and you're on a PC running Windoze, I have a solution:

Go to Start --> Accessories --> Paint. When that loads, open the graphic (File --> Open --> Search your folders and find the graphic; double-click on the thumbnail to open). When the graphic is available, click Image --> Stretch/Skew, and in the "Stretch: Horizontal - Verticle" boxes, enter "80" and "80" respectively. Click "OK".

Save the image, upload it to your file space, change the code on your main page, and see if that fixed the problem.

If I've confused you or anything, just let me know, and I'll help in any way that I can. :o)

I'm also using IE and it looks fine to me.

It must be the resolution settings. I'm using 800x600, so part of it cuts off on my computer. You don't have to make a new layout if you shrink all of the graphics down within the same portion. You can open up PSP and press SHIFT + S to get the box to resize graphics.

Yes -- that is what was wrong!!! I have my browser @ 1152 x 864, but most AOL users had it at 800 x 600 (waaay too big for me). I put a disclaimer on the site about the resolution. Thanks so much!
