As an email subscriber, that works very nicely.  (And it's good to have
the reference pic, in case I ever meet you on the beach.)

I trust you've built in some checking to prevent those 8 megapixel
pictures that camera owners don't seem to know how to size for society.

At the same time, I'd like to renew my plea for email to add a header
line with the group as the "reply-to" address.  Since it's a public
forum, it seems to me that replies to the group should be the default.
Just about every other mailing list I subscribe to (these days, most
seem to be yahoo groups) does it that way.  And I'm forever hitting
reply (my mailreader, like all civilized mailreaders, does NOT default
to "reply all"), sending my post, and then wondering why it hasn't
appeared.
