Your feedback is important to me.  Any additional comments will be appreciated.  Thanks, Tom Heald.

The slide show is fun and easy to use if you keep a few things in mind. As you well know, it takes time to download image files. Each picture in the slide show will take from 40 seconds to a minute or two to load using a 56K connection if the Internet is not too busy. And if it is busy or you have a slower modem, then it can take longer.

Now the good news:

You don't have to wait for the pictures to load. Once you launch the viewer you can look through the rest of the web site as the images are being loaded in the background.

The best indicator of the files loading is your disk drive.  When your browser stops pre-loading the files, your disk will stop chattering and the drive light will stop flickering.

• Clicking on the "Start / Stop / Pause" key on the left side of the caption to start the show.  A new picture will be displaced every 2.5 seconds.
• Click it again and the Slide Show will Pause.
• To step through the pictures one at a time, click the Single Step key on the right side of the caption.  
• To Single Step backwards, hold down the shift key when you click.
• Some captions are longer than three lines.  Scroll down to read it all.
• Each time you click on one of the keys the Status line at the bottom of the browser will tell you if the Slide Show is Running or Paused.
