And that is a cop-out. If I click on a link in a site that is (allegedly)
designed for 800x600, I expect any image that loads (if it is a jpg or gif,
rather than htm or html file) to appear on the screen, unless it is stated
it is a zip file which will download (for later unpacking).

Basically, your site is not 800x600 friendly, no mater how much you say it
is.
