    I just tried it from my computer at home, before I was at work, anyway I am running an AMD 4000 64bit on a high speed connection with firefox not ie, and the photos on the sample page loaded perfectly I have nothing else running at the moment.

    The pics loaded fast and fine for me, too, and offered a useful look at the appearance of Frugal's kilts. Don't quite get all this "feeding frenzy" of nit-picking. Relax for crissakes...!

    I may be late but,,,,,

    The pages load fast for me, but I only have a cable connection and not a real good one, either.

    Comcast in the SF bay area, to be exact.

    FWIW, I will second not using M$ Word for HTML-it sucks at it and makes a bloated file to boot.

    I use Evrsoft 1st Page 2000 for HTML. I used it to build my websites. Clean HTML that is easily edited with notepad if need be.

    I will say that for those who cannot hack HTML code, OpenOffice is a good substitute. It's free and if you can use M$ Office, you will be comfortable with OO. HTML from OO is a little less bloated, IMHO.

    (edit)
    BTW, I'm a Firefoxer so I fired of Internet Exploder 7 and lo and behold, it did a about a minute for the page to load. This is at 3.84Megs/sec worth of bandwidth.
