Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] retractable forward planes
Hi Rick,
There isn't a way to send attachments to the list. Currently we
exchange pictures via the "moki picture exchange" which can be
found here:
http://www.prismnet.com/~moki/subfiles.html
They are instructions at the bottom of the page that tell you how
to upload a picture, it's done by emailing the picture(s) as a
attachments to a certain email address and it automatically puts
them on the webpage.
I'm looking forward to seeing some picture.
Thanks,
Ian.
