Question
May I send you a picture of a Chinese symbol (writing) so you can tell me what it means?

Answer
Hi Keelie,

No problem looking at it...but it would be better if you can find a place to post the image (there are many free webhosting deals out there) so you can give me a URL instead of sending an attachment. No offense but opening attachments from folks you don't know isn't a great idea...  ;-)  even if it's for Chinese purposes!

Do you think you can find a way to post the image on the Web somewhere?

Thanks!
Terry
