Hi,
I have found some time, recently, to start updating the London QL and
Quanta Group web page.
A lot of new pictures have been added, as well as many minor changes.
Can someone with a Broad band connection have a look, and let me know if
all the images display well ?
I downloaded the trial version of Terrapin FTP, from the Demon web site.
Although it is easy to use, it appears to be temperamental about
connecting to my site.
So, I reverted back to WS_PRO FTP, which is essentially a DOS based
interface that I have running on a 486PC with Win3.11
It is, though, easy to use and efficient.
Yet, Demon's Server decided it would not co-operate any more, last
night. Which seems to happen every now and again, depending on the
traffic load.
I have been using the latest edition of Opera web browser, as an off
line Editor, to do the updating, because it allows an easy switch
between the source and the display of the page.
I am still working on the images to get a good file size, etc, so that
download time is as quick as possible.
The source images were taken on different digital cameras, at differing
resolutions - which I haven't standardised, as yet. Although I know I
have some software, somewhere, that can do that conversion for me.

I have also begun a new web page for "Retro Computing", to list
hardware, books, etc, that are available.
