That's just laziness. One extra little bit of effort and you can
easily see my posts. Dear me.

The image size is the image size. That's the size it was meant to be
shown at. Have you no concept of scale and its artistic use?

It was not the full version. The TIFF in the archive is the full
version.

That's another matter of debate. I've used it and it definately is
quicker, but I've see discussion of how yEnc is basically a fix for
something that was not broken (MIME I tink they were referring to).

Your ability to predict is pointless. Do you really think I am
suddenly going to change track? Dear me.

I see nothing of yours unless someone else reposts in an accepted format,
and nothing there that would make me spend the time to download it and
attempt to decode it.

Have you ever studied the difference between "rockskull" and "blockhead"?
When you discover the difference, please inform the group which class you
are one of.

The work may well be excellent, but firstly, your attitude stinks, secondly,
you're walking across traffic during rush hour with a blindfold on.

But don't change now, frankly, I'm enjoying not seeing what I imagine is as
ugly as the person that's posting it.

I love it when IMBJR (his real name, obviously) calls kettle black. I
suggest you get back on your high horse, pick up your ad hominems and boring
renderings and go back to where you came from.

covert.
