Mark,
To make a point.
"JPEG has excellent compression methods; a file compressed at ......" and so on.
There is another way to say that... are you so stupid as to not be aware of JPG
compression?" Yes that patently offensive but certainly the same content and
some of the feel.
Another way to say that is "We need to compress those images and jpg does
that for users with slow feed.".
Does the latter have a better feel?? It certainly conveys the need.
I think everyone here knows about JPG and its compression capabilities.? Its
only a 30 year OLD imaging standard.
I would hope that the document would be compressed maybe even zipped
for size.? Compression is over 40 years old and goes back the the CP/M days.?
However, the initial images are what I was talking about, not the delivery means.
They need to be of good quality meaning in focus and close enough for detail
so we can use them, all done prior to delivery.
We have had a few images that were when enlarged were just to fuzzy to read
and left people guessing rather than understanding early mods.
Not being picky or grumpy or even a bitch.? One thing is required, what is needed
and?to what extent especially for those inexperienced with a soldering tools.? We
have an audience that ranges from new operators to experienced engineers.?
We need to be able to help those that may feel in over their head.? That
includes pulling them up, helping them learn and do, without being condescending.
If this seems harsh it was not meant to be, but no question, It needed to be direct.
