texte = I agree! However, the people who run the image server are in Denmark and I= am here in the US. They don't speak English and communications are very di= fficult. And I really don't think they could care, but it's hard to say... Their service is FREE and that is why I am using it. There is a US provider= of the same thing, but they charge a quarterly subscription fee of $2,400.= 00. Toby's post earlier helped a whole lot and I was able to implement his sugg= estion with great success!
