I'm glad it works. As for the quality, the reason why the quality is poor on the larger images is that the browser is just resizing the photo to fit your screen. The original photo is actually intact. Therefore, a high-quality copy could be downloaded. I'm going to change that so the pop-up images are actually scaled down before being sent to the browser. A HUGE difference should be seen. It is just that, I would still like to provide a link to download the original image, which may be over 1600px wide, larger than most screen resolutions. Thin "on-the-fly" scaling of images to fit your viewport is what degrades the quality. However, it makes sure the image is viewed at the maximum size on your screen, without scrollbars.
For example, to see one of the original images before resize, check out this one: http://www.blackfinforums.com/sites/default/files/23/images/sunset_12-10.jpg . Be sure to click on the image in your browser to get the full resolution. It should be a huge 4000x3000 pixels. A resized version to 1024x768 can be seen here: http://www.blackfinforums.com/sites/default/files/styles/xxx_large/public/23/images/sunset_12-10.jpg
Lastly, seabob4, your extensive list of Smileys have been added to the Smiley button bar.
