Clear Up Bad
AOL Graphics |
|
If you have AOL, pictures on this Website
may seem unclear because of AOL's setup and/or browser. To see the
pictures clearly, follow these steps:
For AOL 6.0:
-
Select the Settings
menu at the top of the screen.
-
Open Preferences.
-
Internet Preferences.
-
There will be four
tabs at the top of the window, choose the WEB GRAPHICS tab.
-
Ensure the Never
Compress Graphics option is highlighted.
-
If you changed the
option to Never Compress Graphics, click “Apply”
-
And then “OK”
-
You should now reload
the Web Page by clicking the circular refresh icon in your
browser. You may need to log out of AOL and go back to see the
new preferences.
For
AOL 5.0:
-
Select MY AOL menu at
the top of the screen.
-
Open Preferences.
-
Select the WWW icon.
-
There will be four
tabs at the top of the window, choose the WEB GRAPHICS tab.
-
Locate the box (which
is probably checked) that says “Use Compressed Graphics.”
-
Un-check that box (if
there is an “X” in it), and click Apply and then OK.
-
You should now reload
the Web page by clicking the circular refresh icon in your
browser. You may need to log out of AOL and go back to see the
new preferences.
For AOL 4.0:
- Click on My AOL (menu on top of screen)

Not done yet! Your old, bad, over-compressed images have been
stored in your computer’s memory. To see the images as they are
supposed to look, now you have to clear your cache:
In the web browser, click on the “View” tab and drag down
to “Internet Options.” Under “Temporary Internet Files,”
