Hi Bill,

on Saturday I submitted a news item to you, in the hope it could get up by today (Tuesday).

Can you give some indication of how much delay is involved, so I can plan accordingly?

Well, you put it into the email queue, which always goes more slowly… might make it up tonight. Unfortunately, this is also invoices night, so it depends how much time is left afterwards.

Yeah, I've never had any success using your HTML form, unfortunately. I can't seem to get the code right, to upload images from a third-party site. I've tried several times, as you recall, even copying and pasting your sample text.

On my wish-list for TMP: It would be lovely if there were an easier way to do it, that didn't require writing HTML code. Something drag-n-drop, for example, and which allowed for some formatting of font sizes, colors, etc.

Sam, there's no requirement to use HTML code in order to use the online form. Just dump in plain text, put comments where you want the images or special formatting, and email the images to me.
