I agree with you John, however was just adding to the previous snide comment. I agree with you & I work for Selkent, however firstly the blinds should have the correct number showing before leaving the garage, however the little darlings do take great pleasure in opening the front blind box up when you are driving along & messing with the blinds. However this is no excuse for the odd lazy driver.

To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] IMAGE SIZES are important, as is QUALITY. Try not to post very large photos or very small ones. Pixel width should be no bigger than 1600 and no smaller than 800. This allows members to view the images full screen, depending on their monitor settings. Quality should be sharp and maintained when resizing images. File sizes should be around the 250KB - 600KB mark, but not bigger than 800KB. Try to keep somewhere in the middle of all this, around 400KB can produce good images with no loss of quality. You can easily reduce the size of images using Google's own picassa http://picasa.google.com/ or Irfanview http://www.irfanview.com/ -- Experience the Devil
