Hi there everyone. I have a little proect I’m thinking about doing, but don't’ quite know where to start in one aspect of it.

I’m thinking about producing a old school newsletter for an event I’m going to (in a very limited run) on an eMate and Stylewriter 2200 with battery pack - writing like it’s 1997! The issue I have is how to transfer in images I want to use. This will need to be done in two phases - before the event and hopefully *during* the event.

I’ve found a site that dithers photos down to 1-bit pretty successfully, so getting things the right look and the right size is easy enough.  But how can I transfer in (say) GIFs both beforehand jbut also at the event itself - where I won’t have a Mac with me? I will however have access to a web server. And Bluetooth OBEX.

How would people recommend I proceed?

Many thanks in advance for your ideas,

Alan Fleming.
