This message is being cross-posted, but it's a one-time thing.  Sorry
if you get more than one copy.

Finally, pictures taken at NetCon '93 in New York City are available
via anonymous ftp.  Many thanks go to Matt Parker (Laz) LAZ@CLVM for
making the site available and to Andy Trafford TRAFF@PANIX.COM for
scanning in the pictures.

ftp to: sun.soe.clarkson.edu
and look in the directory:  /pub/netcon93

(Also, on the same site, there's a /pub/netcon92 directory, which
contains the pics taken at State College which had been kept on
nic.funet.fi before that site became inaccessible to most of us.)

If you don't know how to use ftp, ask at your local computer center,
ask a friend, or even look in a book on how to use the Internet or
BITFTP.  Whatever you do, don't ask me.  :)

Note that all pictures are in JPEG format (*.jpg).  You'll need to
find your own viewer for now, although hopefully one will be put
in the /pub/netcon93 directory at some point in the near future.
HINT: Don't forget to set your file type to binary before getting
these jpg's.

Enjoy...

- Alex

OK folks, here are the pictures fron NetCon '93.

Sorry they're a bit late, but I experienced 'technical difficulties'....

In other words, my hard disk croaked :))

Before I get down to describing all the pictures, I just want to say thanks
to Alex Rudd, Wanda Perez and Glenn Visscher for taking the pictures in the
first place, and Alex Rudd (again) for giving me the job of scanning 'em.

The pictures were scanned at 600dpi with a Microtek Scanmaker II and saved as
24bit Targa files.  Color correction, cropping, scaling etc was done in
Photoshop, and conversion to JPEG was thanks to CJPEG (quality level of 80).

Hope you like the pics :)
