Hi everyone -
Check the Files section for the 1st 6 pages of my issue #5, plus all
my Album Reviews.
Enjoy! :)
Jen

Hi -
Take a look at the Album Review pages in the Files section and let me
know if any of you have problems with opening files or the size of
the pages.
Thanks-
Jen

Hey all -
I now have 3 versions of my Why I Love Lush page in the Files
section, saved as .jpg, .doc, and .pdf formats.
IF you get a chance, let me know which one you prefer for size and
use on your computers.  Due to space constraints I will only post
pages in one type of format and I want to know what works best for
you.
Thanks!  :)
Jen

Hi Jason - thanks so much for the info on a different way to save
pages to the Yahoo Group; I'll be working on it starting this
weekend...um, right, tomorrow, so I'll see if your suggestion works
also.  Thanks again! :)
Jen

to be honest i just signed up and haven't seen any of your issues yet, but you
might want to compare adobe distiller (makes pdf files that open in adobe
acrobat reader).  it may do a better job with compressing image intensive
material than word, while maintaining your original format a lot better across
different computers (specially for macs vs. pc, etc).  it's about as good as
word at putting text inline with images if not better.

anyhow, just a quick thought with potentially no validity :-)

Hello everyone -
Just a quick note; I will start adding pages, possibly in .doc format
(to open in Word) instead of the .jpg format.  Or I might post in
both formats, so that you can choose the way to view the pages.
Let me know if you all have a preference for how to access pages.
I'll be near a scanner starting March 27, so be on the look-out for
new pages after that time period.
Thanks for you patience!  :)

Hey again:
Here's a third, and possibly easier, way to enlarge the page:
When you are in the page, go to the top of the screen, on the
toolbar, and click on View.  A scroll-down menu appears.  Click on
Full Screen, and the page (and the whole screen) should enlarge.  To
get out of this mode, go to the upper right-hand corner of the
screen, where the three buttons are (minimize, restore, and close),
and click the Restore button (to the left of the red button with x).
Ok, hope that helps!!
Please let me know, everyone, if this all is doable, makes sense; if
there's any other way to enlarge pages; if there's some secret I
don't know about!!  :0
Thanks!
Jen

Hi Don + everyone -
I just realized another problem with the page that's
up; on some
computers it only comes up at 75%, so that you can't
read the print
and the picture is smaller.  This happens on my
computer at work
(shhh...), but not my personal computer.
Don just mentioned how to increase the size - thanks
Don!!

I'm going to state again what to do to see the page(s)
at 100%.
There are two different ways to go about it:

1.  When you are looking at the page, at the top of
the screen is
the toolbar.  In upper left-hand corner is File.
Click on File.  A
scroll-down menu appears.  Click on Print Preview.
You are now in
Print Preview.  At the top of the screen is the
toolbar with a box
that may say 75% and an arrow to the right of it.
Click on the
arrow and a scroll-down menu appears.  Click on 100%.
This should
make the page viewable (and printable).

2.  IF that's too involved, try this method:  When you
are looking
at the page, right click in the page to bring up
options.  Click
Copy, then open Word (or Word Perfect, etc)and Paste
(hold down
Control button on keyboard and letter v key)into blank
page.  At top
of screen is the toolbar with a box that may say 75%
or 100% and an
arrow to the right of it.  Click on the arrow and a
scroll-down menu
appears.  Click on 150% to see viewable page.

Hopefully this isn't a problem on all computers...let
me know if
you're having viewing problems so I can find the best
way to post my
pages.
Thanks -
Jen

Hi. new member here.
I just joined and I saw you were having trouble enlarging the Lush
photo.
On the upper toolbar,in your left hand corner, click on file, (if you
have this toolbar)a box will open,in it,scan down and click on print
review in the little box that opens. On the upper toolbar you'll see
two boxes, go to the bigger box that has a number in it, mine always
says 75%, click on the arrow and a box will open, numbers are in it,
these are the scales you want the size of your pic to be, 200%
percent is pretty good 500% is good, but sometimes it'll be fuzzy.
Also, if you have something big to look at,like ,a page that has
seperate sections, the print review sometimes reads these seperately
like a book. Click on the arrows where it says page. This will enable
you to flick through the page your looking at. You'll see what I mean.
Hope this helps. I don't know if I covered everything, I'm still
learning how to use it.

Hey everyone -
I've been on Vacation last week and I'm now embroiled in work-
related chaos, so there will be a delay in the posting of my Fanzine
pages.  Hang in there - I hope to have most of it up the weekend of
April 3-4 (the next time I'll be near a scanner).  Thanks for your
patience!  :)
Jen
PS  Meanwhile check out the great Links and Why I Love Lush page in
Files.

Hello everyone -
I've solved the problem about not being able to view a large size of
the Why I Love Lush page (actually, someone I know figured it out for
me!) - I should not have uploaded it to Photos (that section only
shows small to medium-size files).
I have uploaded the Why I Love Lush page to the Files section, and
that is where I will be putting all the other pages I have.
Let me know if you still have a viewing problem, but this should fix
it!  :)
Thanks,
Jen

Hang in there everyone -
I'm currently working on fixing the size problem withe the 1-page
Lush article.
I changed some Settings today, so that all Members can
upload/download Photos, but it doesn't seen to have taken effect yet.
I'll let you know when I figure it all out; sorry for inconvenience!
Jen

Hi there. I'm not into most of those bands, but that's okay. I
learned about Permafrost from you which led me to Ad Frank's mp3 page
(too bad mp3.com is gone now) and I scored his song "Uhauals &
Rhyders."
Anyway, feel free to link the great thrill racer page:

Hello All (well, Andy N for right now!) -
Welcome to my now-based-online music fanzine Stratosphere.  Right now
I have uploaded a page on "Why I Love Lush" and over the next few
weeks I will be posting loads more to the site.
Enjoy!
Jen

Hi Jen;

Great to see you are launching your fanzine again viva yahoo groups..
I think it is a great idea and I look forward to seeing you do new
interviews etc with groups. I'll bear it in mind also for new
interviews for my website "Setting Sun" in time to come...

Hope you are well...
