In the long term eventually yes, we need to have all the images together on
the kclug site.  For now it saved me having to floppy around all the images.

I am trying to find out about getting a photograph taken for our use.  That
way their would be absolutely no question about our rights to use the picture.

CSS lets me actually do something, trying to justify my existance, because
I don't even know how to import to a graphics program.  Now I can
combine graphics just like anyone else.  The logo is 4k, and the downtown
is 16k, not to bad I guess....

Yeah, I know,... I did most of this with notepad at work, and floppied it
home and finished it up with vi.  Those are about the only kind of editors
I know how to use.  I did not get started on the page till Wednesday, but
it does have some content, the mailing list archive goes back to August.  I
guess it is time to start arguing over content of the main pages though.
