[TheForge] new website

Wed Sep 25 12:16:00 2002

        Buddy,   Absolutely correct.  I had scanned two to three pictures
into full size scanned pages and all the files ended up in the 450-600 KB
size as compared to the ones of late that I get with my digital camera and
current method of scanning and croping pictures down to about 30-60 KB size.
        Just wondering if others had any luck with the fortune city sites
that Trellix runs to, or if someone had done front page........as I think
that is what the Microsoft office web page design program in Office is.
        Dave Mudge just sent along a note about explaining a couple of them,
so I'll see how he made out and what he used for front page that he
mentioned using.
