Images of Norway
– and some boring facts
This website is all about images, pictures, photos, whatever you prefer. At least 400 of them. Pictures taken with photographic cameras and later put through a digital process in an effort to make them pleasing. All of them are from this small country in the outskirts of civilisation. Then there has to be captions; mostly they are short, but sometimes the author gets carried away ...
In an attempt to look organized the site has been divided into six sections as shown. In each section you'll find a thumbnail page with links to picture pages. Each picture page contains one picture, sometimes two or even three. On the bottom of most thumbnail pages there are also links to 'theme' pages which have several pictures or even are thumbnail pages.
This site has one quite unusual feature: You may choose between three pixel sizes of the images: small, medium and large. This means that if you have a slow internet connection it's wise to select the small size, and if you have a fast broadband you may select medium to fill more of your screen – or large, although that size is chiefly intended for wallpapers. On the picture page the width of 'regular' pictures is set to 80 percent of your window width or maximum the selected pixel width (640, 1024, 1600). Thus, if the picture is too high for your screen, just reduce the width of the window and the picture will shrink. The minimum picture width is 400 pixels, therefore you my browse the site with a window width down to 500 pixels (size 'small' adequate), that also applies to the thumbnail pages.
