Hi Carl,

Thanks!  As to the program I use it is called BreezeBrowser from
http://www.breezesys.com/.  You can download the program and use it as a
trial version just to make sure that you like it and feel that it will do as
you wish.  The package costs $44.95 for the full version with free updates
for one year.  The trial version will only do about a dozen images and it
also puts a watermark on the images.  I tried it on a set of images from my
Kodak DC4800 digital and liked what it did that I immediately registered for
the full version.  Now that I have the Canon EOS 10D it is even better as it
can extrapolate all of the data in the image file and can handle RAW files
as well as JPEG and TIFF.  To do the HTML you simply highlight the images
you want to convert, then ask it to do the HTML.  You can also embed a
copyright into each image if you wish and you have a choice of background to
use and then make changes to the code for the index.htm file to add in
anything you want.  As it converts your images it even gives you a time when
the job will be done and then will initiate your browser, if you wish, so
that you can see the results.

I am very pleased with the capabilities of the Canon 10D in all respects
including the quality of the images even at an ISO of 800.  I just made a
couple of 11x17 prints from those shots and I am very, very impressed with
the quality and sharpness of the output.

Bob Gorrill
