>  Pete,

Actually,  you are not quite right-- the big pic you sent was not

around to see it--the  G5 !mac resized it AFTER I had transferred it 
to the desktop -that is when it showed 616K.

Thanks--BTW -  I didn't fall asleep while it came in. I  wife served 
me another Tanqueray!!.

Hic!

Geoff.
