My only concern is for folk who receive direct emails from the group. Those who
go to the website can always look at the file size and say no thanks. There is
of course the unfortunate Yahoo downloading limitation, but probably this group
doesn't generate enough binary traffic to worry about that.
I've got time to think about it, since I'm too busy for this stuff on weekends.
And, as I said before, I really have very few images to offer. Easily more, in
fact, of the Seattle W's than all the indigenous antipodean shots together.
I'm a virgin to the delights of scanning transparencies (the results are night
and day compared with scanning a 4x7 print!) and those old pictures have been
bursting to get out for years.

I don't see anything
wrong with it myself and there are no group rules specifically against it. At
the same time I kind of think we would prefer to not see all pix of this size.
