Your image didn't make it. Maybe it is too large?

Well, I have a 125K jpeg but can't read it. Am I the only one?

Nope - still no see. I can't see any header on the file. Tried PSPro
and Irfanview amongst others.

I can't see your images. Trying to open them in Irfan View, I get this
message:

'Can't read the header. Unknown type format'

Got it now. Makes my eyes water but must print that one.

Broke my rule against anything over 200K but just had to go for it!
Warning to others - put your dark glasses on :-)

Oooooucccchhhhh.  That was 400K+ way too big. 

Can you tell us what method you're using to save the images, and then
someone can help you. 

It'd be a good idea to go and delet/cancel the messages of those two
posts where the image didn't work.  And probably not a bad idea to 
cancel this 400K version too, server space is limited. 

When you've sorted the JPG problem out then you can repost the image so 
that it can live here permanantly for all to see, because it's quite  a
unique image.

Okay, how do I go about canceling the posts?  I've never had to do it
before, so I am in unknown territory here.

Cheers!
