Hello. I'm glad we have all these POV pages to use as inspiration and as
a resource. Can I offer a suggestion for web page design? When you
design a web page with tables, don't make any column or table a fixed
width. Either use no width or use a percent width, so the table will fit
in the browser window and a person doesn't have to scroll left and
right. 

Thank you.

The width setting only sets a minimum.  If the image is bigger than
your table, the table will expand and you'll have to scroll anyway...

Most tables I view on the web do not have images inside them. I am aware
of the "wide image" issue.
