A good point indeed.
I myself is on a PBM 33.6 connection, and I've limited my download
settings a bit. I simply do not download any post larger than 250k . 
This limit is rather reasonable for me, since the UUencode, or MIME or
any other bin->ascii encoding enlarge imagesize with 33%.

x * 1.33 = 250 000 => ~180-190 k unless I am totally off ..

I for one look forward to JPEG2000 in the groups.. the wavelet
compression looked wonderful in the java demos ... *longing sigh*

Hey Spider,

Maybe you could explain this further. Sounds intriguing.

Whatever,
