Re: Df photos of greenhouse/Andrea

David, it's my connection that's so slow.  I was exaggerating.  I don't mind
though waiting 10 or 15 minutes for them to come up, but to have to do that
3 or 4 times to get to the last picture is just not fun.

Yahoo will load even a large file more quickly, I think because it shows a
compressed version of what you've uploaded.  But even there I often can't
use the slideshow feature because my connection is slower than the amount of
time a slide is given.  However, there you can view thumbnails of all pics
in an album and pick one to view; yours only gives that option for 6 photos
at a time AND I have to wait for the center one to fully load.

Fortunately(;) I have Netzero's 3G, faster service, without which I'd never
get anywhwere.  It loads all graphics at a lower quality so they come up
faster.  This means that if I want to examine it in detail I have to right
click on the photo and ask it to display the graphic in full quality.

It's a pain, but the problem is on my end, not your photo service.  Someday
I'll get  some speed and catch up with you guys.
