Thank You ED. I've been operating in the stretch mode but just found that I prefer center.

However, I still have not figured out how to put two photos side by side.

Dusty - in advance mode, when you want to put two photos side by side, are you using the paper clip thing? If so, make sure that when you go to insert the second image that your cursor is directly to the right of the first image. It will look like this in advance mode

You did it before. I saw it. But when I went back, you edited it and it was gone.

All I did was post to the forum and then delete the post because it did not seem to work.

Are these the shots that seemed to work?

1280 x 1024 here. That produces the smallest text my old eyes can read. Monitor will go higher but then both my eyes and SWMBO complain! :D

Ed,
Take a picture of the screen with the tiger picture from my post #5 when your in the "eye of God" mode. I want to see how much of the screen the image fills up.

You say, I've got it. But it doesn't seem that way here.

I have the two shots but they are one above the other and not sidebyside.
