This is why I don't agree that the list should be restricted only to
files
that can be read by all possible OS or computer types.  The pps I want
to
send has 28 slides and I think it is real cool and it is currently below
the
5mb threshold (1.5mb).  But it is too much of a pita to convert it to 28
separate images, try to keep it in order and keep it below the threshold
as
both a jpg and a pdf will greatly increase the file size.

It's a power point slideshow of the stratosphere tower in Vegas with
some
really great photos.  If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll send
it
to you off list. Sorry, Ed.

Hank
