I am using the thumbnail option, which is working great
except for one problem. I would like the link to launch
at 100% of the image size in the new window. Right now it
is lauching to fit in window. Any ideas!!

That would be your Internet Explorer, resizing the image. Nothing you can do
about that, unless you can figure out a way to make everyone in the world's
browsers not do that.

I'm using 2002 version and am having trouble with my
thumbnail pictures. I managed to do one and then nothing
I've done since is working. I insert picture from the a:
file and then resize using arrows to the page size. I
then press the auto thumbnail icon on tollbar. Then I
save. However, when I preview the thumbnail, it is its
original size. Am I saving at the wrong time? HELP!
Eagerly await any suggestions. Thanks

first check Tools | Page Options | AutoThumnails and see what you have =
the output settings to.

You have to have the big image selected (it turns dark) before you apply =
AutoThumbnail.

You have to resize the image in a image editor, then import that image into FP, then after inserting
on your page, you can have FP create thumbnail image. The large image that you insert on your, which
you created in the image editor, is the one that will be seen when a user clicks on the thumbnail
image.

Don't resize it. Just drag/drop to the page, right click on the photo and
select auto thumbnail.
It will create a thumbnail of the photo according to your preset specs. It
will also automatically create a hyperlink to the original (large) photo.
After you do this, you can move it anywhere, and the hyperlink will work.
You can also resize the thumbnail if you wish.

I find it easier to make my own thumbnails with an image editor. I get
exactly what I want.
