? ?? ?? ?? ?As one that does not post pictures to this forum,
perhaps I can take the liberty of making an observation.
? ?? ?? ?? ?The notion that everybody on the forum has to conform to the
lowest power machine that tunes in is ludicrous. I agree, there are some
limits on size but let's exercise limits in both directions. There ought to be
an agreeable minimum size. I do post pictures on two other forums and on my
web page. My lower limit is 4 x 6 inches at 72 dpi.
? ?? ?? ?? ?If a person cannot receive these then whose fault is it?
There are many ways to boost a person's computer capacity. If a forum like
this is important to a person, then they should make the provision necessary
so they can enjoy it.
? ?? ?? ?? ?I'm 83, on a retirement income which, while not munificent,
is enough to allow me to make decisions over how I shall dispose of my
"amusement" funds. And I must admit, the computer is high on my list.
? ?? ?? ?? ?I will post a picture here at 4x6 and 72 dpi. It is a
bromeliad, Tillandsia deppeana. Perhaps Elia and Cathe would let me know if
they have any trouble receiving it.
? ?? ?? ?? ?I know this is not a message that will receive an outpouring
of popular support, but perhaps some consideration of maximum size is in
order. I have already suggested my candidate. ? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

It would help for viewing if the
photos were made smaller before puttting into an e-mail...or in the
e-mail---pull the corners to make them smaller.

...on us who are stuck with
high-rate dial-up connections. *Please*.
?
Isn't it possible to send
images in a smaller format? I don't think that would hinder
identification, and it wouldn't clog up one's e-mail.
?
This is such a helpful forum,
it's a pity to have to keep deleting messages unread just because they're
over 2000kb.
?
Also, I find many are being
automatically deleted because my firewall considers the subject heading
spammish. Is there some way to identify MediPlant mail as
such?
?
Thanks,
Eli.
