  Ever since the "upgrade" of the PTG site we haven't been able to =
access the archives except with google...which works.   Personally, I'm =
not crazy about the new format...no offense to those who have slaved for =
weeks to upgrade it...it would be nice to know what alleged advantages =
the new format has over the old.

  Ron -
  I know there is a problem here you are trying to resolve, but I'm not =
sure this is the answer. To quote from the instructions on the =
ptg.org/files page:




    When a file is uploaded it sends an email to the moderator so it =
should be approved or deleted within a day or two.=20

  Given the way graphics have become intrinsic to many of the =
discussions here, such a delay seems to pose a significant obstacle to =
the flow of ideas.   For example, it's only 1:12 AM right now, and I =
can't see the image of bent tuning pins Clark Sprague sent over an hour =
ago.  ( http://www.ptg.org/files_add.php)   Unless you're willing to =
assign a surrogate, or junior monitor when you are not available, it =
acts a bit like a curfew.=20

  Just an initial observation, though I'm glad to see you're trying.

    I have set a limit of 2MB per file, this should be adequate for most =

    You might resize pictures before you upload them since they will be =

    Let's see how this works.
