I wouldn't mind sticking to the current ccp4 netiquette and adding links to the
images in question instead of attaching the images themselves.

However, I would prefer a server dedicated to this BB rather than something like
twitter, flickr, second life, google maps or ... - there is 'free' and there is
'free', and I prefer to separate at least my work related communication from
these aforementioned servers/ services...

(that's also why I usually start a net search with ixquick.com instead of
google.com)

So maybe someone from the people in charge of ccp4.ac.uk or one of the
ccp4-Wikis could comment on how much space they have available on their machines
and whether it would be a concern for them if there were such an upload area.
