Hi Sherill!

Basically you need to place anchors in your page and reference them in your 
links. You'd need to do something like this. On the thumbnail page you 
would put this around the [img] tag:

[A NAME="thumb1"][img src="thumb1.jpg][/A]  and do that for each thumbnail. 
This is the anchor name.

On the big pic page you put this is your link:

[A HREF="thumbs.html#thumb1"]  the #thumb1 tells the browser to go back to 
the anchor called thumb1 and place it at the top of the page.

Replace [ ] with angle brackets and you should be set. I would have used 
the code from your page, but AOL says it doesn't exist....
