Quote - Q.      Why are you resizing images? 

       A.     There is no resizing algorithm in the gallery software. You are viewing the full-size image, we have instructed your browser to display it at a smaller width. If you are seeing jagged edges, you might investigate the resizing algorithm of your browser. Last night all the images we looked at in Safari, Firefox (Mac and WIndows), and Internet Explorer (Windows) looked absolutely fabulous.

It might also be a problem with your screen depth settings (16-bit, 32-bit, etc).

Just a suggestion. But we aren't resizing. Your browser is.

@Stacey: This information is incorrect.  It's obvious these are the words of one extremely naive williamsn.  We already know the issue is with Windows or earlier versions of the Mac OS.  Please do members here a favor by removing the above from your gallery FAQ sticky.  It is disinformation at its finest; never mind the fact that it's an outright lie, and will only cause confusion.
