This is from "Daylilies Online" and further emphasizes Christopher
Hollinshead's comments about the AOL browser being "technologically
deficient".
I use Internet Explorer and I'm happy as a 'duck on a June-bug' with it.

Welcome to the Internet's most extensive collection of high-resolution
daylily photos. This collection is maintained by Nick Chase. IMPORTANT: The
daylily pictures are JPEG documents, and are best viewed with a browser
that supports inline JPEG images such as Netscape from Netscape
Communications Corporation. The client software is free, and you can
download it to your Macintosh, Windows/Windows NT PC, or UNIX-based
computer. I have been told that the IBM Web Explorer, free with OS/2, also
displays inline JPEG images, and I have had the opportunity to try America
Online's Web browser, which also correctly [?] displays JPEGs. However, the
AOL browser does horrible things to the photos.... they look "mushy".... so
don't complain to me, complain to Steve Case (scase@aol.com), president of
America Online.
