Hi Lesley
Yes I undertsand and I dont think most of the binary groups would be
interested in my pictures !
The idea of setting up a web site appeals to me and I will go ahead and do
that as apparently I have some
spare web space on one of my accounts.
In fact I might I might consider hosting microbiological pictures for those
here who dont have any web space
Thanks for the top tips
