    File sizes

    We've had computers for how many years now?

    Is it just the clientele that I work with or do people really NOT understand the importance of file size?

    I've told these people and told these people that if you're using a WINDOWS based system you should NOT email files that are over one MB in size. But they don't seem to understand.

    I actually got an email this morning that had a file 10MB !!!
    Some idiot decided to send it just the way it was without doing some kind of compression or anything, and EMAILED IT!?

    To top it all off, I'm not even supposed to actually use the file, they just wanted me to see and example of what they've done.

    *end of rant*

    Propably one of those types who think compression ruins the quality of the file(s) or something as silly...
    Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

            I would get a gmail account....but I've got a business address that I'd REALLY like to keep using.

            I just wish folks would pay attention to file size.

            Why do you want my email address, baby?

              Ok, guess that means you do not want email with my music collection attached.

                  I think there's an option on GMail to get mail from other accounts. I haven't tried it yet, though.

                  If it works, your problem is solved...

                  Oh, and ah...

                  Was it a dirty photo?

                  Cheers! :bottle:

                    I think I'm going to look into it. Just because these idiots are too lazy to load big shit on my server....

                    *nah, unfortunately it was a photo of a house...no dirty here*

                        Yes it does and any female who says otherwise is either:
                        a) in love with their man
                        b) LYING

                              Well, there is one home truth that will cause a woman to say that size doesn't matter.....

                              When you're the biggest she's ever had.

                              And that I'll swear by. A woman who truly believes that size doesn't matter has never had a big one before.
