*********************************************

I was fiddling around in Hotmail and tried something out, and it works. Since I only use Hotmail, I don't know how to do this with Outlook or other mail systems. I think it would be possible with those other ones though.

Anyway, I found out how you can send a picture in an email without actually putting the picture directly into the email. IE, reference the url where the image is. The email will be much smaller in the recipient's mailbox. This would be especially handy for large images or multiple images.

Step 1: This only works with Windows Internet Explorer, not Netscape.

Step 2: Copy either of the two examples below into the place where your text goes. The first example has a picture, followed by a clickable bit of text. The second example has a clickable image (it goes to the website you want the recipient to go to).

Step 3: Put your own urls in place of the ones in the example (one for the image, the other for the link to jump to). Here's how: Use Netscape, not Explorer for this step. Right click on the image and then pick View Image. You'll now see just the image, so that means that at the top you've got the url of the image. This is where the image gets copied from into the recipient's email. Cut and paste this into the example below. Now paste the destination url into the example.

Step 4: Replace the comments in the alt field with your own comments (this step is more pertinent to using the 2nd example) Modify the size, color and font parts also, if you want.

Step 5: Click on RTF as the file type.

Step 6: Send it!

*Speed up your modem (Part 1)
This worked for me just fine, and my modem runs appreciably faster. If you want to speed yours up too, write down the following recovery tips and then give it a go.
The link below gives simple and easy to follow instructions, but since it is possible you may goof up, recover this way:
Windows 95/98 registry recovery:
Reboot your computer and when you see the "Starting Windows 9x"
screen, hit the F8 key, this will give you a menu. Choose the full screen DOS mode. Then type scanreg /restore
This will allow you to restore previous good boot settings (ie, restore your registry).
Windows NT registry recovery:
Reboot, and when you see the message to hit the spacebar, hit the spacebar, then type
L, then hit the Enter key. (Don't let the text you see after hitting the spacebar dissuade
you from the spacebar~L~Enter sequence.)
This will restore your registry.
OK, one more thing : The following link left out instructions for how to get started in editing your registry. Here's how: click Start, then Run, then type in regedit.
Now, here's the link:
Speed up your modem: http://registry.winguides.com/display.php?30

*Speed up your modem (Part 2)
Start/Settings/Control Panel/System; click the Device Manager tab, then expand the Communications Port (usually COM1 or COM2, could be any other COM port). Double click the communications port, then click the Port Setting tab. Set the Bits per second as high as it will go. Leave the other values at their defaults.

*Speed up your modem (Part 3)
In the device manager, expand the modem and double click the indented modem icon, click the modem tab, and make sure the maximum speed is set to the highest value.

*(AOL & Blurry Graphics)
http://www.pcworld.com/howto/article/0,aid,57988,pg,3,00.asp
AOL defaults its graphics to the blurry Johnson-Grace format, which means they load faster but you get poor resolution. You can improve the look of your graphics by clicking My AOL, Settings, Preferences, (Internet Properties) WWW, select the Web Graphics tab, click the Never Compress Graphics option, and then click OK. In order to see the changes, you must now clear the compressed graphics from the browser's cache by selecting the General tab and then clicking the Delete Files button.

Restoring the Windows 95 Registry: (Thanks to Stuart Holloway)

1. Start or restart your computer. After your computer starts, Windows displays the following text: Starting Windows 95...

2. While the text is on your screen, press and release the F8 key. The start up menu will appear.

3. Choose the Command Prompt Only option.

4. At the command prompt, change to your Windows directory. For example, if your windows directory is C:\Windows, you would type the following: cd c:\windows

5. Type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each one. (Note that System.da0 and User.da0 contain the number zero.) attrib -h -r -s system.dat attrib -h -r -s system.da0 attrib -h -r -s user.dat attrib -h -r -s user.da0

6. if you want to contact product support, type the following to create files you can refer to: copy system.dat system.bak copy user.dat user.bak

7. Then type: copy system.da0 system.dat copy user.da0 user.dat

8. Restart the computer

9. After you recover it and get everything fine don't forget to re attrib those files: attrib +h +r +s system.dat attrib +h +r +s system.da0 attrib +h +r +s user.dat attrib +h +r +s user.da0

Painless Windows 98 .CAB Extraction
You can use the System File Checker (SFC.EXE) to extract a fresh copy of any Windows file. Just click Start, Run, then type in SFC and hit enter. A dialog box will open, click on the radio button that says "Extract one file from installation disk." Enter the full name of the file you want and click the Start button. Type X:\WIN98 in the Restore From box (where X is your CD-ROM drive letter). In the "Save File In" box, enter the destination folder and then click OK. SFC will search the \WIN98 directory for the CAB file, and will then extract it into the the folder you specified.

Fixing NT's Remote Access Service
1. Make sure modem is working, use hyperterminal.

2. Go into network properties, remove everything from the following three from the bottom up: Services, Protocols, Adapters. (If you cannot remove TCP/IP, use regedit to delete all items in the registry hack under "Removing TCP/IP from the Windows NT Registry". If there are any stubborn ones that won't be deleted, you will have to use regedt32. How? See p. 96 of the NT booklet.

3. Reboot, and reapply service pack. For any and all messages that say "target file is newer, do you want to change?" Say NO.

4. Reboot again. Put in the NT CD. Go into My Computer, go into Dial up networking. The wizard will start. Point it to Z:\i386 (where Z is the CD-ROM drive letter). Keep hitting OK or next... choose tcp/ip...

5. Reboot again. Reapply service pack again. Yes, again.

Installing a Video Driver in NT:
1. Insert the CD-ROM with the video drivers on it, or the floppy disk if the user has downloaded the drivers from the web.
2. Right click on the Desktop, left click on Properties.
3. Click the Settings tab.
4. Click on Display Type.
5. Click on Change.
6. Click on Have disk.
7. Click on Browse.
8. Point it to the appropriate directory for the NT 4.0 drivers.
9. It will warn you about installing a third party driver, click Yes.
10. It will then install the driver.
11. Click on Close.
12. Click on Close again for the display settings.
13. You will be prompted to reboot. Reboot the system.
14. When Windows NT reboots and the customer logs in, it will prompt that a new video driver has been installed. Set the Desktop Area and Color Palette accordingly.
Note: This would also be a good time to copy the I386 directory to the hard drive. Just click and drag the I386 directory from the "Windows NT 4.0 1-2 Processor Edition" CD to the hard drive. It makes for installing components much easier. When NT says "Windows NT needs to copy some NT files...", just point it to the directory in which you copied the files, rather than having to insert the CD.

Notes on Vector vs bitmap graphics:
Vector graphics are not native to the internet. Graphics created using vector based programs eventually have to be converted to bitmap format before being put on the internet. Vectors are also known as paths or simply line drawings. Adobe Illustrator and Macromedia Fireworks use both vectors and bitmaps. A vector graphic will not lose its resolution when it is resized because it is drawn by formula, not by pixel. Once the graphic is finished, it can be saved in pixel (ie bitmat) and/or vector format.

#################
Note: the following line can be inserted into the following body tag, right after the alink. It will cause MS Internet
Explorer to hold the background still while the rest of the page scrolls up and down.

bgproperties=fixed leftmargin=0 topmargin=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0

<BODY background="/tx5/beequin/images/wpworld.gif" bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000" link="#993399" vlink="#663366" alink="#ff00ff">

-----------------------------------------------------
Note I sent to Glory Wayman 6/16/2002 @ 11:12 PM

Here's an online version of the book "Powers of 10". It's pretty mindblowing, the more you try to comprehend the scales, the more blown your mind will get. The book itself didn't stop at showing the little square on the guy's hand, it zoomed in as many levels as the zooming out.

The really mindblowing thing to consider is that they're showing 26 or so zooms, when in my belief, you can zoom in forever, or out forever. Why should there be some limit?

Here's an even weirder idea. What if...., just what if, it looped, sizewise? Say you zoomed out far enough, (in a perfectly straight line you're zooming out) for maybe a gazillion years at say a million frames per second, and eventually you found yourself looking at what was way way below atomic scale? And as you continue zooming, atoms come into view, then the guy's hand, and there you are, back where you started.

Which means you could pick any one spot, at any scale, pick any angle, zoom out in a perfectly straight line, and again, eventually you'd arrive back at the original spot and scale.

Naaaaaah....

Well, either is does that, or the scales go in both directions forever in a linear fashion. Either way though, if God is the only truly infinite thing, then all of this is just in God's mind.

http://www.kidsastronomy.com/space_size.htm

PS - If, when you die, your soul/spirit has any mass at all, everything becomes MUCH bigger to you. If you have no mass at all, then size doesn't matter anymore (pun accidental). The universe is smaller than a speck, and at the same time can be seen as far more incredibly huge than it appears to us already. I think it's the latter. Does time also cease to matter? Are you at "anytime" as well as "anysize" and "anywhere".

Well, I'm getting hungry. I'm heading downstairs for a peanut butter sandwich and a glass of milk.
