rules (a preface)
one of these days, i'm gonna come up with a big list of unwritten computer rules. then it'll be written, and i can refer to it all the time to people who break them. these rules won't be about what operating system you should use, so you don't need to worry, Saulemander, you can keep using your crappy one.
the reason i want to start this list is because i'm really tired of getting screen shots sent to me in weird forms. macs are beautiful-- a screen shot, every time, is sent as a .png file. simple as that. but windows, since a screen shot merely pastes to the clipboard, requires the use of some other application. and people here always have excel or word open, so they use that. so i\'m stuck with enormous files (since microsoft is not exactly space-conscious) with a tiny little image.
use paint paint, people! store it as a jpg! or a png! or something! but stop sending me huge files that take forever to load!
