Hi, Darcy.

Actually, e-mailing them to me at <> would be best, as I
have a MAC. While my son says I can use PC diskettes and use Graphic
Converter to import them, it would probably be less grief to do the e-mail
route. The photos need to be in GIF or JPEG format and the resolution
should be set around 100 dpi, as that is best that most monitors can view
them and reduces the size of the file.

Actually, I'd like both.. I would definitely like to have a hard copy, but
it would be nice to have it online, both for the archives and adding
snippets to Joab's page.
