The page is lovely. Loads quick. My only complaint is the width. The screen resolution on my monitor is 1680x1050. I generally run my windows a little over half the width of the screen, close to 2/3 width. Most all websites will fit comfortably in that width. I have to widen the window to nearly the whole screen to get it to load the whole page without scrolling. Looking at the source for the page I see that all the tables around the edge are set to 80% but the table that contains the states is set to 835 and the three cells within the table add up to 828. Adding up the different cell spacing/padding your getting pretty wide, 858, but still close to a good width. It is, however, wider than your table width. The Trails logo, bullet and NEDistrict logo add up to over 1000 pixels. I think if you can resize that bit to more closely align to the center table the page would be a better size. Bring your <td>'s down to a closer fit to your logo sizes. For instance: The Trails logo is 300 pixels wide but your <td> width is 431. Your bullet width is 46 but your <td> width is 249. The NEDistrict logo is 262 wide and your <td> width is 357. You have 608 pixels of graphic but the table width is way over that. I try very hard not to do anything on a page over 900 pixels wide to have pity on those that might have smaller/older monitors. I remember when you didn't do anything over 640 pixels wide on a page. That was a maximum resolution for monitors back in the day.

Yes, your right, different computers display things differently. I have several of the more common browsers installed to check my pages with them. There's been a couple times where pages have given me fits, trying to get them to display right in all browsers. Sometimes it has to be a compromise.

It really is nice and crisp. I love the border. I use % of the screen for width then it adjusts for whatever size someone has. Never liked to use tables. But now I see the value in them. Keeps things lined up no matter what the screen size. I do my own however, very seldom use other peoples templates. Fran In a message dated 9/23/2011 9:46:04 A.M.

Nice.... I like the picture frame like effect. On my little laptop, it's twice as wide as the screen, you must design on a wide screen monitor. But on my main computer it's fine.

What it is is another way of finding out what kind of people they worked for. They mention who the bad masters were and the good ones, tell of their lives as a slave and some sound like they were respected and treated well while in history, others were beaten etc. I did not know they were given land either. g On Thu, Sep 22, 2011 at 10:31 AM, Sammie jean gregory Fairchild < [email protected]> wrote: > Gail, That is great.

Gail, That is great.  The slaves in Attala County still live on land given to them by the Gregory and Peelers.  They still farm those lands for themselves.  One of the girls was my sisters best friend.  Gail now lives in Milwalkee Cant spell good.  But it is so good to be able to trace that part of your family history.  Jeannie From: Gail Kilgore <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2011 3:10 AM Subject: Re: [TTTP] Slave Narratives What grand reading... the history that these people are telling.  It is awesome.  Then to top it off, I found the slaves that were owned by my son's gggggggggg grandfather.... somewhere down the line in OK.  Absolutely fabulous reading..
