You know? One thing that can be learned from the "CODED TEXT" fiasco is that
pictures can be sent along with text files. Mike Spencer is right, if you
are going to append a GIF or JPG photo to a text file, it should be done
sparingly. Maybe just a note that you have a picture demonstrating this or
that technique or piece of work inviting those interested to ask to see the
photo. With the introduction of high quality, low cost ($500+/-)digital
cameras, the ability to photograph and share all kinds of photos is readily
available. I see this as an enormous teaching aid for beginners.

This by accident experience may be beneficial to us all.
