I cant send my walkthroughz in they are too big in size. Can anyone help? E-mail them to me. I do not post my e-mail address here, in order to keep the SPAM down as much as possible. Since my e-mail address was posted often on the Monolith Productions, Inc. Gruntz Forum, and since that web site is not administered at all (and is now a SPAMmer's 'heaven'), those SPAMmers are spoofing my e-mail address in their malware. The result is that my e-mail provider has limited my outgoing mail due to complaints, and failure to establish the actual origin of the SPAM. Only one e-mail control point has responded to my appeal, actually checking the SPAM and finding that it did not originate from me. So I will PM you my e-mail address ( Gruntzerz already know it, I am sure  ). |

Skype. ICQ. Web Host. Lots of other ways.
Have you zipped them?

A single Walkthrough should be not much larger than 100KB, well under the e-mail size limit. I weed out my e-mail storage regularly, and try to keep at least 1MB free in my primary e-mail account. So sending me one every six to twelve hourz would be no problem. (I would upload them to my web host, and delete them from the e-mail in-box as soon as I received them in my several timez a day e-mail scanz.)

To zip a file up (in Windows XP, which I'm sure you have ), select the filez, right-click one of them and select Send To > Compressed (zipped) Folder.  |

Thankz alexandgruntz that sure made the file size much smaller! I usually do not open any ZIPped fielz I receive in the e-mail ... so be sure you identify both the source (yourself) and the subject of the e-mail very clearly. Still, in e-mail the size limit on my e-mail provider's system is 5MB (which is the total size available to me ... and far more than I have for new messagez). The comicz are much larger than 100KB ... at least, those sent in a group of 5 were quite large. I purged quite a bit out of my e-mail account, and now have about 2.5MB available for new messagez. You must have been thinking about the size limit for attachmentz on this Forum ... 100KB (total), and only 1.2KB remainz available here. The last time I cleaned up the attachmentz, I had to have help from the ProBoards staff to recover the threadz that those attachmentz were in ... so I am reluctant to delete the onez that are now available from the 'normal' web host. So attachmentz in this Forum are now effectively 'frozen'. |
