Hello Keith, Here is how I looked at your jpg attachment of the Blown fuse 

annunciator circuit:



1) Note the subject matter of the email posting that has the attachment you 

desire to see.



2) Go to the aeroelectric list navigator site by clicking on the URL at the 

end of each list digest:



http://www.matronics.com/Navigator/?AeroElectric-List



3) Click on the BBS forums URL:



http://forums.matronics.com/



4) Scroll down to the appropriate list -- in this case aeroelectric, and 

click on it:



http://forums.matronics.com/viewforum.php?f=3&sid=b2280214d4829c9f10f3ad00ea4de9d3



5) Scroll further down to the subject postings.  If one of the series of 

postings on the subject contains an attachment the subject listing should 

have a little paper clip icon indicating that some where in the series of 

postings on that subject there is an attachment:



http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?t=71859



6) Scroll further down to the end of the posting with the attachment and 

voila! there should be the attachment in all its visible glory.



Please let me know how you make out.

PS: There is sort of a gotcha. I posted a jpg picture on the KIS list (see 

here I hope):



http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?t=71560



and the picture posted just fine except that its layout on the forum was so 

huge such that one had to scroll all over the place to find the area of 

interest.

    This is something of a conundrum when posting pictures.

    Even the most inexpensive of modern cameras are capable

    of imaging and recording in great detail with some pictures

    being as much as 3000 pixels wide.

      This is something of a conundrum in that not

      everyone's computer will handle viewing of a

      downloaded image exactly the same way. It depends

      on your default image viewing application in

      addition to defaults set up within that application.

      I don't even remember what the defaults are on

      this computer, I set them up years ago and promptly

      ignored/forgot them.



      Even the inexpensive cameras are capable of

      imaging and recording in great detail with

      pictures upwards of 3000 pixels in width. Bob's

      uploaded image was 2,304px × 1,728 pixels.

      The first blush presentation on my computer did

      indeed produce an image that ran off the screen

      in both height and width.



      But in my case, a right-click on the image produced

      a pull-down where "view image" is an option. Selecting

      that option zoomed out on the image so that it

      fit the screen.  You can also right-click images

      and tell your computer to save them to hard drive.

      After they reside on your own hardware, you can

      open them with any other application for viewing,

      resizing, editing, etc.



      Unless I'm posting an image that contains detail

      best viewed in the camera's raw output, I try

      to re-scale the pictures to 1024 pixels wide so

      that they fit the native settings for most folks

      computers . . . but even that's not a 100% sure

      thing for everyone's viewing convenience.



      By the way, adding those nifty air flow control

      features at the wing roots is reminiscent of

      an effort to improve the handling qualities of

      a Cessna 303 Clipper/Crusader.

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_303

      I recall a presentation given by a Cessna test pilot

      at some dinner-with-a-tech-talk. He showed us video

      of the 303 flying on the single critical engine at

      some breath-taking low speed doing maneuvers that

      approached aileron-rolls.



      This became possible only after much study

      and some tweaking that included airflow fences at

      the wing roots. This insured maintenance of pitch

      control under conditions that no pilot with a

      family would routinely venture into. Except of

      course, THAT test pilot!



      Neat stuff that aerodynamics.
