[Lowfer] Using MS Paint to crop an image

First, a big thanks for administrating this list! We don't hear much from you but I'm sure you're 
busy behind the scenes. We appreciate that we're allowed attachments.

Most images posted here are well under 35k ... or could (and should) be. It's the rare occasion when 
there's a requirement for a 'big screen' view of what's going on. Usually small 'snippits' are 
sufficient. A fair amount of .jpg compression can be applied without apparent degradation because of 
the random nature of the FFT background. Artifacts show up first in the areas of solid background 
color with letter characters ... like a frequency scale ... which is usually of less importance than 
the rest of the display.

We'll make sure to keep 'bandwidth' in mind when posting attachments.
