I wil lsoon, thanks to outside help, be experimenting by placing an Adobe Acrobat created version of Chris and Nigel on the site.

It is not small. Half a Megabyte.

I could place it as a zip file, which means that people wilhave to download it, or as a pdf file, which will allow it to be opened on the site per se.

To be fair I am not sure if I should do it at all. Often downloads over dialup lines stop for no real reason half way or less through a large file.

When I do it, I will do it in such a way that it can be monitored. I may put each of the zip file, and the pdf file up, and compare the uptake, while also giving people a chance to express opinions about it in a poll.

I decided against a pure HTML file, though I can do that easily enough without help, simply because of the download stopping and aggravating the crap out of peole half way through.

I wouldn't mind your comments, pre posting the files, though. Specifically, "is it a good or a bad idea"

Tell you what, start threads for NO and YES and let's see
