Bill - the crop has very nice detail, but dropping the resolution to 800 pixels seems to kill the detail.

flickr pro is good and relatively inexpensive. I used a program called JAlbum (runs on OS X, Windows and Linux), it's free and you can choose to donate money if you want (I did, helps the developer keep on improving it). It took all of ten minutes to create my website - I'm serious! I Just pointed it at my image folder and made some settings and voila. It's very easy to use as well. I have a mate who's hosting for me, but when I get a broadband connection up here I'll probably install Apache on my OS X box and host myself. Either that or I'll host from my Linux box. Not keen on IIS on Winblows, too many holes, too damn dodgy an operating system. If Microsoft made vacuum cleaners, they'd be in the right business
