just create a new username, upload only the image files but no index page, and links to "http://mywebpages.comcast.net/newusername" will, again, show a list of the images.
That worked out real well. Good tip.

Glad you like it. But keep in mind that this will work in ANY directory that does not have an index.html page. If I see the link "http://www.domain.com/username-or-directory/subdirectory/page.html", there's nothing too keep me from taking a peek at "http://www.domain.com/username-or-directory/subdirectory" just to see what's there. So, if you DON'T want people seeing a list of the contents, be sure to put an index.html page in the directory or subdirectory. It can just be a blank page or, such as I use, one that says something like "Snooping around for something?".
