[DML] ADMIN NOTE - Attachments

["Dave Swingle" <dswingle@xxxx>]

We seem to have hit another glut of people submitting attachments to the
mailing list. While this works sometimes, many readers cannot see it and it
messes up the archives. Two problems - if you are not careful it makes the
download time a pain for folks with slow modems. For people with basic email
readers, and the archives, it comes out looking like the sample pasted
below.

If you want to post a photo, either put it on your own website and make a
pointer to it, OR sign in to the eGroups DMCnews page, and put in in the
"vault" section. Then write a note telling the list to look there. I've put
something in there for you to look at as a sample (thanks to Chris Hawes).
Hint - his picture also answers some questions about models. . . . .

IF YOU HAVE NEVER SIGNED INTO THIS PAGE please put in your EXACT
subscription email address, hit "forgot password" and they will send it to
you. Do not sign is a new user our you will then be double-subscribed to the
list.

There are 20 mB of storage there that no one has ever used. Stuff posted
here will be up for a short while, we'll keep an eye on it.

Sample of a what a picture looks like to about half the people on the list,
and when it works its way into the archive. :
