I have a rather expensive painting I want to show on my site, but I can't afford a frame. What can I do?

Example

Okay, so you just spent $12 million on Van Gogh's Starry Night and can't afford a frame. Here is one we can build very quickly using economical recycled electrons.

The idea is to nest one table inside another. The outer table forms the frame and maroon matting, while the inner table is the black matte.

Note: although the effect will be similar in Netscape and MSIE, they will be different. If you have both browswers, be sure to take a peek!

Sample Picture

   <TD>

         CELLSPACING="10">
     <TR ALIGN="CENTER">
      <TD>
       <IMG SRC="/dimages/starry.jpg" WIDTH="127"
