heh heh.. always a trap for us "four eyed types", been caught myself a
number of times<g>
Still, there is a little good in everything?
That small misper saves us (ABCP) from a lot of the usual shite that
goes on in binary groups today. The short version of "why it is so" is in
the "miniFAQ" posted. The longer version is attached.

I reckon :-)
I have tried and tried to get folks using the idea, not much success
there... and there is an added benefit as IF folks get familiar with a pix
editing tool then they can easily supply better graphics to use for digi
work and thus get (easier) what they are asking.
Many (digi Folk) just will not take the extra time to clean up a graphic
before digitising it and therefore requests go unanswered.
>Thanks
.. and thank you for the lesson. Others will be appreciative too..even in
their silence :-)
Now.. back to my usual desktop.
