If anybody cares, I have archived 6268 files since 03/12/03. Thats a lot of
BBQ pictures. About 460mb total. Not a big impact on a 40gb disk. Looking
back over them, it's just too hard to attribute individual pics to their
originators. PCG000168.jpg don't mean a whole lot if you know what I mean. A
title like backribs01.jpg doesn't do much to identify the poster. fos jumped
on the wagon
and inserts 'fos' in all (or most) of his titles. Some others have made an
effort, but I'm to discombobblated right now to cite there names. I'd really
like people
to take credit for their pics by signing them in some way.

And then, some of us agree that you have a great idea, and that we will try to
remember (I know that I have done this), only to forget when the time comes.

I know that when I re-size and/or compress my pictures for posting, I like to
save the original, so I *have* to give the resized picture a new name. This
would be an *EXCELLENT* time to make the name fit the photographer and the
occasion.

I guess that what I'm trying to say here, is if you will keep reminding, we
(me?) might eventually get it.
