Alrighty!
So I assume you have either of those programs if you're here, right? So
I'm gonna go over thumbnails that WILL load quickly. Click on the
screencaps for an illustration.

First, I'll show you how to
just make thumbnails using Microsoft Frontpage. Step one- Open the page
you want your pictures to be on in frontpage. My example page is almost
blank. Now go up to "Insert" and choose "Picture".
Click on the Icon that says "From File". Or, if you would
rather, you can just click on the shortcut for that.

Look for the picture you
want, click on it, and click "Okay".

Now you have a huge picture
in the middle of your page. Just click on it to select it. Then you go
down to the toolbar at the bottom, and click the auto-thumbnail tool.

And now you have this! Click
save! It'll ask you if you want to save embedded files... tell it yes!
Easy, huh? And I promise you, these WILL load quickly. Well, that's it for
how to make thumbnails with Frontpage, now I'll show you how to make the
tiny thumbnails! You can use a program called Microsoft Image Composer to
make our tiny thumbnails. So that's what I'm going to show you next.

First, open an image with
the program. It's fuzzy in my example because it's automatically zooming
out. But that doesn't matter yet. Click on this button here.

You see where it says
"Width" and "Height"? Type in the dimensions you want
for your thumbnail here. I'm going with 50x50. If you see a checkmark in
the "Keep Aspect Ratio" box, click it once to get rid of it. Now
you can type in your dimensions. Again, I've gone with 50x50. When you're
done, click the "Apply" button.

Now it's really tiny! So
click on "File". Now choose "Save Selection As". Make
sure your little picture has been clicked on! Now call it whatever you
want, and you're almost done!

Open up Frontpage, and click
on the "Insert Image From File" shortcut up there. Find and
select your picture. Once you hit okay, you should see it there!

Make sure you have your
picture selected, and click on the insert hyperlink button.

Just type in the name of the
original image! Make sure you add the file type at the end, like ".jpg"
or ".gif", ect. Now you have a tiny thumbnailed image that'll
load very quickly! I hope this helped!
