I have a dial-up connection which is probably as slow as anyone's.
Personally, I have enjoyed the recent posts of pictures. All of them have
been small (less than 100 kb) which even on my connection only takes a few
seconds.
That's my 2¢'s worth.

Subject: [Bristol-Birds] Bristol Birds List and Photos
Hello Bristol area birders,
I have a concern about all the recent pictures being sent to Bristol Birds.
There are still a few people on dial up connection. While a picture file
here and there won't slow them down too much, I feel that the constant
bombardment of pictures could possibly run a few people off the board. We
need to keep in mind that while the vast majority of people have a fast
Internet connection, there are still some who connect a slow speeds. Don't
take this the wrong way, we would love to see the pictures that our great
Bristol Bird Photographers take.
I think an Internet picture gallery is the best route for most pictures.
Lots of places offer free places to store pictures (I.E. Yahoo). If anybody
needs any help in setting a place up, let me know and I will be glad to
help. A gallery let the user on a slower Internet speeds choose when they
look at the pictures instead of having to wait until they are downloaded
just to check their other mail, Bristol Birds or other.
What would be a big shame is if we lost any of our great reporters to
Bristol Birds because of such a minor issue.
Thank you for you time,
Rob Biller
Elizabethton, TN
