Hey everybody I am thinking we might want to raise the limit of the picture size. But before we do, and cause new problems I thought I would conduct a straw poll and see how fast you are all connecting to the net.

If your method of connecting is not on here, just pick the closest thing to your speed.bpoling38360.5936226852

1.5 MG Cable at 768k DSL at work..
I would think 50K at least. I'm having a hard time bringing images down below that. IF anybody is interested, Microsoft makes a quick handy picture re-sizer, two clicks and your resized to small Mid or large. Let me know if you want it, ill email it to ya.
ITs called Image Resizer Powertoy Setup.exe

I'm on a 3 mb business cable line. The cool thing is my wife's company pays for it ($295 a month) and there are only 3 computers on it. Screaming fast. Paul
