Hey there Chile Farmer, THANKS for helping out.

For those looking for world class products - check out Chile Farmers site, very impressive.

It's on. Let's try and crash the Server (with all those great food pix!)

Quick question, DATs.

Normally I use ImageShack to post pics. In the rules you say send pics or links to you. Do you mean the *actual* pic file? Links to the file on an outside server? Or just the ImageShack link?

Second, do you need us to resize the pics in any way? I bought a camera for the wife's b-day and the pic files it takes are 3+ megs, 3072x2304 pixels. A bit big for email.

Thanks.

Yes the actual jpg. 640X480 jpg is preferred. If you can't resize them I can do it. I have DSL so I'm not worried about download time. If you can post them to Imageshack, I can handle it. I don't want to pull them off a public website as it is a blind contest. Hope this helps

I can resize, no worries. Thanks for the reply.
