Mac OS Info Viewing Internet Graphics
With The Highest Quality
Using The AOL Web Browser
Mac OS Info


Unfortunately, the AOL Web Browser
automatically sets itself to compress internet graphics.
Although this provides for shorter download times of graphics,
it will often distort higher quality images on the web.

One more important note... At this time, the AOL web browser does not
support Javascript for the MacOS. This means that you will not see 'active'
graphics. These can be graphics that react to your mouse movements, graphics that
automatically move, etc.

Hopefully, AOL will include Javascript in their next MacOS version update.
Until then, you may want to use
Netscape to view the internet.
