You know John, the more I think about this I'm
tending to agree with Jerry, Janice, and Annette. I think it WOULD
be best to keep it as it is now. The whole point is that this
site is for viewing photos - not mesages.
Also flipping back and forth between URL's will get
old fast. The images now are currently INSTANT, and (in my case) saves me more
time when I come to view what's been posted. And sometimes that is what
it's all about - TIME.
So my last and final vote ;- ) would
be: Keep it as it is now!

As you know I am thinking about moving iris-photos to
hort.net (as I have done with iris-talk)
We are concerned with the
bandwidth load on the Mallorn servers, and have come up with an alternative
approach for the posted messages.
Instead of sending the attachment
picture with each post, the message would contain a clickable link (URL) to
the picture in the archives. It would make downloading the messages to
each individual subscriber much faster, and you look only at those pictures
you are interested in. Even if you are interested in all of them, there is
no penalty in doing it this way.
For those of you that already view the
pictures in the archives this might be a better alternative, and certainly
no worse.
Let me know what you
think.
