AOL USERS

If the images have lines though them, or look "unsharp", then you probably have your browser set to look at compressed images. You will find that although there is virtually no difference in speed on any but the oldest computers (the pre-pentium and pre-power pc generations), the difference in how much better images from many web sites will look is astounding when you reset your preferences.

Please follow the instructions below for your browser to reset the graphics to look the
way they were meant to be viewed.

Listed below are instructions for:
Windows AOL
Mac AOL



WINDOWS AOL USERS

4-Locate the box (which is probably checked) that says “Use Compressed Graphics”

5-Un-check that box (there should not be an “X” in it), and click OK when you are done

6-You should now re-load the web page by clicking the circular refresh icon in your browser, or by pressing the F5 key. In occasional cases you may need to leave AOL and restart your computer.
