Yep, it works... Suggestions though... try to use at least 640x480 pics with 300 DPI so that the pics are clear. When bringing your pic up it was very grainy...

I'll let you in on my secret:

I hate grainy pictures too, but I hate HUGE pictures and trying to download them especially if they are a part of a gallery. Sooooo, that being said:

I set my Camera to take full resolution, non-compressed images. I then use the 2.2 megapixel raw TIF file and import that into ye-olde-camera software suite. I export the image as a 640x480 JPG using the camera suite's "Lossless compression" setting. Face it, all compression is lossy, but this forces the software to go a quality job and reduce file sizes enough to be 56k modem friendly and look really good in the end.
