[olug] netscape

[Michael King]

	It would be much easier to just stick the image in a web space somewhere
and send the url.  Of course why you're sending in such a format to begin
with I have no idea.  You might try converting the image to make it smaller
as well.  If you don't have space anywhere you could also try
whalemail.(http://www.whalemail.com/) which allows you to send up to 50 meg
files via a web interface.  That way all the person on the receiving end has
to do is go to the site and download it directly to a file following the
directions there if your worry is having to explain the dreaded right click
then select "save as" manuever.

Unless you are sending it as an attachment, the image is converted to a
code-64 format which about doubles the size. The solution is to send the
image as an attachment. ---Jay
