Aardvark has some great points, but I'm not the graphics person on this so
I hate to push my luck too far on this one and I don't want to re-do her
work. I wonder how she saved it originally though -- if I can find a
diplomatic way to discover that . . .
I took Mark's jpg and uploaded it. I'll figure out a way to ask the PM if
she notices a difference. I don't want to step on any toes with this new
job, but then again, I don't want to look like an idiot either!
Thanks!
