It's not a problem to scroll down to read the text but I like seeing the entire picture when the page loads vs. having it be a tease or cut off on the PC screen._Maybe, it's our PC screen but the pages required us to scroll across to see some of the initial content presented vs. a page views which requires you only you to read down the page using the roller button on the mouse.
