Aug. 30th, 2005 08:21 pmI'm c&p'ing a story for my pda.
It's in chapters. It's in chapters on someone's lj, so if I don't want the comments, and I don't, I have to click and scroll to only get story. But, interspersed as, I think, scene breaks, is this *huge* picture. Which means I have to click and scroll within the chapters because the alternative is c&p the pictures, and that makes Word unhappy.
People, *please*, take pity on us older folks. Don't make it hard to read your stories because, honestly, if I weren't several chapters in, I'd just plain stop. I know the newer readers like chapters because you told me this. Do you have to make it harder with big graphics?
ETA: My husband, bored with my complaining (and who could blame him?) suggested that I simply turn off picture loading. That worked. I feel very dumb now.
