If anyone knows of options in plucker to show this (both images and formatting, I even read that html doesn't support images while pdb does while it appears that it is the oppposite) I'd like to convert all to pdb to have something interchangeable with my Zire 72 and at the same time something more compact.

I use Sunrise 0.42j on my Linux box (KDE desktop) it's fabulous for generating pdb files. The GUI is nice and allows for manipulation of many parameters. If you're running Windows then you would probably want SunriseXP
.

If the webpage that I'm converting is all on one page then I use .html to save the page and have no issues with images. You just need to place the whole folder with images and html on your card. I do have to go in and edit the html - for image location if I've saved the page on my desktop and am now moving it to my SD card in my N810. However, if you save the page to .html directly on your Nokia then the images should be linked properly.

I use Sunrise when I'm wanting to save an entire website with multiple links and images. That's where Sunrise really shines. I've converted entire online textbooks to .pdb format.
