O.K., Tim, can I pester you one more time?  When I scan pictures into the 
computer, they take up about 11 KBs.  When I take them off the camera or the 
CDs (old type camera), they are anywhere from 350 to 900 KBs.  Is there any 
way to shrink the silly things so they don't take up so much room and so 
they can be sent via old dial up?  Or do I need to print them and then scan 
them?

BTW, thanks for all the help!!!!!!
