" global warming" Sad but true - says she sitting in 5" of new snow (at least
I'm not in NY)

I never noticed the web save option - I'm too print oriented, I guess. I'll
grab the other little program and see which gives the best results. I just
want to be sure the jewelry will show up at 72 dpi. No sense wasting
electrons with blurry garbage, either!

But what about the site page updatess? Any thoughts on that? And do I load
the optimized images to the site along with the site images if I want a
larger image to show? (Yes, I have, but obviously need to re-read the
article).

With any luck I'll have the site up this weekend (HA - said that the last
four weekends). Then you'll have something to look at to help debug.

No, your optimized images for the web should be 72 or 96 ppi regardless of
what the physical dimensions may be.
Photoshop has Save For Web option this may help you.
Also, take a look at IrFanview (an excellent free program) that allows for
quick batch processing (easier than PS) which will allow for resizing,
conversion, optimizing, renaming all in one shot - this may be helpful tool
for you.

At 400 ppi you're just wasting electrons...and we have a shortage of them
right now due to global warming/freezing ..whatever :-)

400
