Thanks Leigh, yeah not quite sure what’s up with the mail, may even be a problem on my side :shrug:
Trouble is that I really am a bit short on time at the moment (lot of last minute stuff), I’ll try and send Robert a mail too and see if we can’t get something sorted, I’ll also send a copy of the final tiff on to a good friend of mine here JamesMK just so you guys know, in the hope that he’ll be able to upload it for me if I can’t.
I’ll be uploading the final image milestone as jpeg in a few minutes at least, if it all doesn’t work out then it just doesn’t work out, I do however REALLY need this holiday
