csh, I found the problem with your images. Your html is calling out the image dimensions. That's a good thing, it makes the webpage render more quickly in the web browser. But, your html is telling the browser to resample the image. For example, your standard chess set pic (room3.jpg) is 600x450 pixels. But your html makes the browser display the image at 686 x 520 pixels. Because the browser has to resample (resize) the image, it gets blurry and jagged. I see that you are using FrontPage to make your site. I've never used it personally, but what I think is happening is that you are resizing your image in FrontPage, and so FrontPage writes the html and tells the browser to resize the images. To fix it, you have to either A: render the image at 686x520, B: use photoshop to change the image size to 686x520, or C: (what I'd do) change the html so that the image height and width are exactly equal to the size of the image. You can probably enter numerical values in FrontPage, but if not, you can edit the html in any text editor like notepad. Just look for where it says this: img border="0" src="room3.jpg" width="686" height="520" and change the width and height to 600 and 450. If you are unsure of how big the image is in pixels, open the image in a new browser window, and depending on which browser it should say the pixel dimensions on the title bar.
