Au contraire.
If you have an image named 'huge.jpg' at 10000 x 10000, and you ask a 386
computer to:
<IMG SRC=huge.jpg WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=100>
Then two horrible things happen.
1. The client has to download that stupidly large image.
2. The client has to *SCALE* that stupdily large image to 100x100
There is no magic here.
That's maybe a lotta work for that client.
