Yes, certainly to some degree.  But, if you have a, say, 4x6 image at 100
DPI, that won't get re-sampled by the browser, providing the window is large
enough to handle 400 x 600 pixels, right???  I'm simply talking about
resolution issues, not tonality.  I completely understand your comments
about tonality, and agree.

Oh!  Where can I turn that off?
