Photo Gallery pic shows up negative....

Hi-
I'm on Frontpage 2003, Win XP pro. I have a Gallery
page in my site and I used Frontpage's photo gallery to
set it up. Now from my end, it all seems fine, but a
(objective) user browsing on another computer informed me
that upon clicking the thumbnail to see the larger
picture, the larger picture showed up as a negative (or
maybe "solarized") version of the photo.
The site is www.frankbright.com - go to the "regular
site", (not the flash site) and click on 'Gallery'. My
sincere apologies in advance for anyone who finally
clicks on all the pictures and still finds nothing. But
seriously, if anyone has any ideas, I be appreciative.
Many Thanks,...Frank

Make sure all images in JPEG (.jpg) format with a subformat of RGB.

I'm not seeing the 'negative effect" can you be more specific about which
ones? I would howerver suggest that you quite severly crop and then resize
the photos down to about 500 or 600 pixels wide. They are uge and I must
scroll quite a bit! Look at them full screen with you monitor set at 800 x
600 ... ouch! FrankMarriot1.jpg is 1600 pixels wide. How about a little work
in you image editing program with colorbalance etc. Maybe not what you
wanted to hear.... otherwise it's a site site.

The only complaints I've had similar to this were when Mac users tried to view the Slide Show photogallery in FP.

Hi-
You are correct about the sizes, and I should have
also mentioned not only the sizes you are referring to
but that I already resized every large photo down to 600
or 400 px a while ago. They show up resized fine in my
Frontpage program and in the browser preview, but do not
appear on the web online after publishing. I've long
since figured this to be a bug in Frontpage, because I've
experienced this alot with replacing/resizing regular
(non-gallery) photos in general - often times there is
actually quite a time delay between publishing them and
having them appear online in the web.
So with this gallery, I was literally hoping time would
fix the situation and that one day, the resized photos
might appear. I appreciate any ideas on this. I want to
get the larger photos under control as well. Many
Thanks, Frank

When you resized the photos, you did so outside the current open FP Web / Site and then re-imported
them back into the current open FP, correct?

Hi Thomas-
I'm 90% certain I resized them outside of Frontpage. I
have very good photo editing programs (both Microsoft
Photodraw and Adobe Photoshop) and I learned long ago not
to edit photos within Frontpage. But I'm not saying I'm
totally sure. I have my moments of laziness like anyone,
so maybe it's worth a second shot. Thanks,...Frank

Ok, sometime is best to delete the current image from within the web, and then re-import the new
modified images of the same name.

Hi Thomas-
I guess I'll eat crowe here,...(gulp...). I just redid
them correctly (outside FP) and it worked. In my own
defense, I think I re-did this gallery right after
upgrading Frontpage from 2002 to 2003, and the photo
gallery resizing interface looked newer (was it actually
changed in the upgrade ? I can't remember for sure) so I
think I was trying to give the new upgrade the benefit of
the doubt. It was a while back so who knows. Oh well... I
think I've learned my lesson again !! Many Thanks,...Frank
