| Hi Tony Thanks for sending through that a/w so quickly. Just one problem ─ I couldn't open the attachment. I'm not sure why. My inbox is virtually empty, so there's plenty of room, and the attachment limit is 20MB, so there's no problem there. Perhaps there was a glitch somewhere. Anyway, rather than trying to figure out what went wrong, could you just send it again? Did we discuss file format? I don't know much about TIFFs, JPEGs etc, but I meant to tell you that if you have any queries on this, you could get in touch with Steve, our designer. His email address is steve@stevegreendesign.co.uk. One other thing. When you resend me the a/w, could you cc it to Angela? I've asked her to have a quick look at it before we put it in the brochure. I'm looking forward very much to seeing those pics ─ fingers crossed that they'll come through OK this time. However, if I still can't download them, I'll ask you to put them on a disk and mail them. All the best Jenny |
