Sid - Re the thumbnails - Several have pointed out that Netscape 6.0 had some problems. I have 4.6 and all the thumbs show. What I don't know is why several folk said MY thumbnail was the ONLY one to show on their browser.
I'm using Epson Twain and Photo Deluxe 4.0 rather than photoshop 5.0. I scan at either 300 and change it later or scan it at 96 dpi and let it be. Then I EXPORT to jpg file format. When I check the data in Photo Deluxe it is the same as in my browser (400 x 529 pixels). I always look at anything I send to the PUG in Netscape on my server before I send it off. I see what you mean tho. ann Sid Barras wrote: > > Hi all, > I've started a new chain with this letter because I think it important > for some of us who may be confused with the rules regarding PUG submissions. > > I started the older chain of conversation with this (condensed): > > <<My photo in the PUG this month is a dissapointment for me due to its > noticeable pixelation.
