Re: [GSAS-Member] Ghazanfar's Cryptocoryne talk archive - now available

[Shango Los <shango@shangolos.com>]

Erik did an amazing job editing this video into something that remains
engaging even though I am not in the room. Well Done.

As to your question about image size.... Indeed, it is a bit small for my
tastes.  I stretched it larger and it did get pixilated but it was still OK.
The sound remained great of course.

I see no reason to keep it as small as 50MB.  Anyone who is going to the
effort to use BitTorrent probably can also deal with a 150-200MB file.  That
is my preference for size/quality.

Again,  excellent job!
