Hi Dave,

I don't "get" this tech stuff... but a student took two minutes and went to "Paint", copied my pictures then saved them. Now they're very small in comparison. Does this work? I don't really understand, but just kick me when you need to.  Thanks.

Jim

>From time to time someone sends an email with pictures of some piano related thing.  That's good, and it's what the list is for.  However, sometimes the pictures are far too big to go by email.  Many ISPs limit the size of emails that they will accept.

A better way to do it is to upload the pictures somewhere and include the link to them in the email.  That avoids the size limits, and also gives everyone the option of downloading them or not.  There are several places where you can get web space free for storing such things.  One is Microsoft<https://signup.workspace.office.live.com/signup/default.aspx?sku=OLWBase&signupsrc=olwsignin&wa=wsignin1.0&rpsnv=10&ct=1238159062&rver=5.5.4177.0&wp=MBI&wreply=http:%2F%2Fworkspace.office.live.com%2F&lc=1033&id=66623&partner=OfficeLive&bk=1242930015&cru=ht> that will give you a tremendous amount of space for free.

Check it out.  It makes everyone's life easier.

dave
