You are the Bassman Ronn. Toasters certainly have an important place on basses. This is certainly a reminder of one of those great bass players who has used a toaster to very good advantage.

Paul.....what is your "secret" for getting your pics reduced to fit here, but still make them so large? I am humbled....
And PLEASE don't show any more Sophie pics for examples....I just can't take it anymore!!

Paul,
Please don't 'mister' yours truly. I'm just a baby...at heart.
Chris,
Sophie wants to greet you.
"Hi Chris, I know you still have one of my sisters. Please take good care of her and let her sing as much as she likes.
"
I use the on-line image compression service of
http://www.jpegwizard.com/ to get the pics to be under 36k, within the 500X500 limit. Once you enter your e-mail address, you're directed to the next page where you can upload your pic and specify the dimensions of the optional output thumbnail image to 490~499. The thumbnail image will be under 36k if your original pic is under 200k. Depending on your original image size, sometimes the thumbnail still exceeds 36k and you'll have to upload it again and use the Optimization function to get it lower. It's also feasible to optimize first and then re-upload to get the thumbnail. Bear in mind that their daily allowance for each e-mail address is 5 pics. Experiment a little with the Optimization Level settings. A setting of "1" or "2" might be enough to get a satisfying result.
