[NSRCA-discussion] Electronic KFactor Question

[kingconsulting]

I like the paper version better but I still download the digital version. I think having both sizes would be good if possible. I would download the high res version but some may have a slower connection or a slow connection on the road. My .02.

I can make the issue high quality so that you can zoom in and the pictures are nice and clear even at 400%.  The problem, of course, is that with higher quality comes much higher file size.  I know some of you view the issue on your iPad or smartphone and some may have a slower internet connection.  The difference between the "regular" version (typically 5MB) and a high definition copy (could be 35MB) is substantial.  What I'd like to know is if the high quality version is important to you.  I have the October issue online now.  There is the "normal" version that I've been making for some time now (5MB).  I have placed a high quality version online as well for you but I"m not sure if it's feasible to produce both every month (specifically for disk space on our server).  **MAKE SURE you know what version you are downloading.  Remember R.T.F.S. (Read the flipping screen).  I would like to know what our membership likes/wants especially since Jan is now producing the electronic issue in full color.  I will also work with Derek to find out if we are on a specified disk size or have "unlimited" disk space through our hosting provider.  If we are unlimited and enough folks want it, I can always just produce both and let y'all choose which one you want.
