On this note, some tools provide this kind of thing for a fairly small
overhead. Google run picasa on the web which is a no brainer for putting
pictures up on for discussion - this has the advantage that they can
also be "hidden" or "public". Someone has also mentioned blogger as an
option, but this has a slightly higher activation energy.

See:

http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/graeme.winter/IllustrativeExample

For an example. This was very straightforward. The benefit of sharing a
picture will almost certainly outweigh the effort required to do the
upload.

Cheers,

Graeme

If you're talking about an open site where anyone can post, then we
could run a contest to predict how long it takes for it to be hacked and
used for illegal file dispersal. If you're talking about a site where
CCP4 personnel could remove attachments from incoming e-mail and post
them on the site, I suspect that CCP4 personnel would prefer not to
handle that extra work load. The same for a site where CCP4 personnel
would administer private accounts for users to post. I think it's better
if each person finds their own site where they can securely post.

Cheers,
