Took a look. Seems like Zone Alarm probably define an img src of 170x130
to be a banner ad! Nobody publishes the lists of what is considered an ad,
or nefarious people would get around it.

Really nice photos, Frank. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice guys

A question for you pontoon users. I got a chance to use one once and
it felt like I was rowing in mud. The owner later claimed it was
underinflated. Was he right or giving me a line since he wanted to
sell it to me?

I guess Zone Alarm associates the particular script you're running w/
an ad.

That's Mr. Geek-Boy to you bucko.

Two potential problems:

1. (probably not it) you use target="_blank" on your thumbnail anchors and
maybe Scott's firewall stuff tags that as a sign of an ad. Likely it's #2
or a combination of #1 and #2 that freaks it out.

2. Check your source images. Your IMG statements say WIDTH="170"
HEIGHT="130" and the thumbs I checked are 640x480. You should resize them,
I would recommend 160x120 which is a nice even 1/4 on each dimension. When
you try to scale them in the IMG it looks smaller on the client, but doesn't
save download time because the original size image is downloaded and scaled
in the client. This disagreement between the IMG and the image might be a
trigger in Scott's software.

Sorry for the lateness... OE hosed some dbx files on me and I had to
reconstruct ROFF and my Inbox from backups. Also went fishing and
drinking - met a 'special lady' at O'Driscolls. TR later.

....I suppose that it could have been underinflated Peter, but it seems to
me that (a) you would have noticed the semi-flaccid pontoons, you know,
shrinkage and wrinkles, or (b) if this guy was trying to sell it to you he
should have pumped it up for your demo. The new one I have now fairly
scoots across the water with minimal effort on my part. These were
Flyfish's pontoon boats we were using which have 8 ft pontoons and weigh
around 65# empty, yet I had no problem whatever rowing mine. I'm absolutely
sold on P/boats and use mine more than my power boat. If you're looking by
brand name, his are WaterSkeeters and mine is a TU Madison which weighs in
at 46# and has 7 ft pontoons. Cabelas carries both I think.

The other guy had a water skeeter and he blew by me using half the
energy. The pontoons on the one I was using did not look soft, saggy
or under inflated. I think they were just too small for the boat so
it sat too low in the water. I think it was a 7' Fish Cat but I can't
be sure. I know the pontoons were much smaller than the water
skeeter.

Okay - Mr. Geek-boy's advice #2 has been followed and the page redone.
Scott can run the ZA tests and see how that works out.
