I don't know if you're talking about me, but it sure sounds that way. If you have asked me directly, or sent photos directly to me and I didn't post them to KRnet, I apologize. At the risk of signing up for doing everybody's website, send the pictures to me and I'll post them. I don't go out of my way to volunteer to do this becuase it takes a minimum of an hour to do that, and often quite a bit more. Most people who don't have web sites also don't know how to compress a photo, so I end up cropping and compressing photos as well as writing the website, and then I end up updating it from time to time, and when you multiply that time 50, it's a hassle and a time drainer. As most of you know, I'm pretty selfish with my time, because between work and flying, I basically have none. I get 5 hours of sleep per night, period, and I'd love to get a lot more, but that's where my "extra" time comes from. That's why I welcome Mark Jones and Dan Heath's efforts at hosting some of you guys, and I just point to the link. I wouldn't mind hosting them if it were as easy as Lynn Hyder makes it...he does the html and zips it up with the photos and all I have to do it upload it and update www.KRnet.org to point to it. And don't forget there are hundreds of free web sites that allow you to put your pictures out there with comments for people to view, but most email accounts come with some kind of web space where you can create your own website and maintain it yourself. I'll gladly add a link to anything that resembles a KR, as long as I don't find anything else offensive on the same page (remember Justin?). If I have ignored any pleas to post photos from you, you have my sincerest apologies, and I assure you it was unintentional. I don't remember any requests from you, or I'd have posted them. If you just asked for "somebody" on KRnet to post them, I probably let it slide, hoping somebody else would spend their time doing it rather than me. That's just the way I am. I'd still rather you made it easy on me and just give me a link to point to. I posted a few details on how to create a web page and compress photos at the top of http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/misc.html a few years ago. If you can build an airplane, you can build a website, and I'll gladly add a link to it...
