Are
you an AOL subscriber, publishing your webpages to a site within GeoCities????
Please read the following information.
As an
AOL subscriber, you may not be aware that some of your HTML coding, developed
via your AOL composer/publisher program, will NOT work on all browsers
other than your own. The following are steps which we hope will help
you determine if you have a problem, and the steps to correcting such problems.
1.
Be sure to view your GeoCities pages in a browser other than your MS IE
AOL browser/personal publisher. Then ask yourself these questions:
Does your page fully load? That is, are all of your graphics visible?
Typically, your graphics will NOT show in a Netscape browser.
2.
Have someone other than an AOL subscriber view your page/s using a Netscape
browser. Can they see all of your graphics? If not, this is
definitely a clue that your graphics are not formatted correctly.
Then ask this person, or someone else who's not an AOL subscriber, to view
these same pages with MS Internet Explore? If the graphics are now
seen, your solution is close at hand to help that Netscape viewer.
2.
Because your graphics don't show in a Netscape browser, as stated above,
you will have to reformat your graphics from .art format for AOL to .gif
format for viewing in a Netscape browser.
3.
All graphics intended for use on your GeoCiteis page/s should be saved
with your AOL Image Compression turned off.
4.
To learn more about the steps you need to take to accomplish this, please
go to either of the following links specifically intended for you, AOL
users/publishers:
Turning
off Compression in AOL 3
Turning
off Compression in AOL 4
In closing,
we hope this helps you go from having your graphics look like this
to this for Netscape users.
Afterall, didn't you develop your page/s to be viewed by all of your visitors?
Then don't exclude almost 40% of your visitors with Netscape browsers from
seeing your "Masterpiece!" |
