Re: attachments anyone?



Given the large number of subscribers on PALEONET, and the diversity of
their local computing hardware and software, I recommend putting images
on a WWW or FTP server, and simply including the URL (address) in posts
to the mailing list.

Some usual conventions:  give the format and size of the file.  Give a
brief text description of the object, including general dimensions and
whether the sediments are marine or terrestrial (if you know).  Giving
the image scale as 1:1 is a bit vague because not all computer screens
have the same pixel density and because the reader cannot estimate the
size of the object without looking at the image.
