Just checked .. I have 20Meg or so left on my FTP space so I will scan it
in
high res suitable for framing and post it there. I will post a link when
it
is in place.

It turned out to be your web space -- but that was a nice
improvement.

Funny that, When I go to upload files I have to go to an ftp site and
login, then to download them you go to the web space.

That is probably so I (and the rest of the world) can't upload
to your space. I don't know whether they offer anonymous FTP for
downloads, but with the URL you gave, the brower (or wget) was the only
choice.

I may get a hair to
play with the scanner more and see how nice I can make it. The scanner
lives on the wife's machine so I have to schedual time to use it May
have to go buy one for me too just so I can figure out how to do it right
the first time.

What kind of scanner does she have?

I find an old HP ScanJet II (color) works very nicely for this.
I've got a SCSI adaptor on the computer, and the HP software lets me
scan to TIFF with pure B&W -- and adjusting the threshold between black
and white to tune it to drop most light stains and smudges. Once I have
the scans made, they get moved to one of the unix machines, and
combined, turned into PostScript, and from there into PDF -- all using
unix tools -- not Adobe ones.

I've got a spare ScanJet II (one from hamfest, the other from
eBay -- both really cheap), so some of these days I will try the various
unix scanning software to see what will work better for me, and keep me
clear of that Windows machine except for on income tax prepration day. :-)

Enjoy,
DoN.


P.S. What Time zone are you in? It is currently 2:36 AM for me, in
EDT -- and I am now going to bed. :-)
