I have a flatbed scanner, I just haven't had access to a camera for
a while because my wife took both of them when she went to visit
Grandma. If anyone needs photos scanned, I will do them, but be
warned I am in Australia so the postage will be a bit. You can get
free web space (11 megabytes per email address) at geocities.com
and xoom.com and a few other places. CH'ers could upload photos to
their free web sites and send the URLs to Mike/Graeme to link in.
Most normal sized photos for web page use should come in at around
60K if you store them as JPEG, which is always the best format for
photos, and readable by all web browsers. A really big scan, screen
size, may be as much as 300K. Only a really serious CH would fill
up a free web site with photos...
Now, where has she put the camera?
