Use WIDTH and HEIGHT tags for images

It is STRONGLY recommended that you always code in image width and height tags. By telling web browsers the size of an image, a page will appear to load faster on a client's machine.

FORMAT:

<IMG SRC="graphic.ext" WIDTH=wd HEIGHT=ht>

graphic.ext - your graphic file
wd = the width, in pixels, of your graphic
ht = the height, in pixels, of your graphic
