In recent weeks several posts have had very large attachments. This can create a bit of a problem with low download speeds and (not for me, fortunately, but others) eating into download quotas.

 

Does anyone have any thoughts about this? I don’t want to spoil the enjoyment people get from (e.g.) interesting photos but at the same time as far as I’m concerned, I would prefer to have the choice as to whether I download them.

 

One possibility that I use a bit is downsizing the definition and file size (e.g. via Microsoft Office Picture Manager) before I send an image, letting anyone who wants the full file have it later…   Any other ideas out there how we can meet the range of needs on this one? J
