      David,


      Nice job. Except your images are not showing. All I get is junk like this: [cid:image001.png@01D06BBE.33072950]


      Is this something I can fix on my end?


      Thanks,


      Herb Spaulding

      Because the attachments (pictures) make the email too large (by ptc user standards), you will need to look at the post online.

      It was brought to my attention that all the pictures got stripped out and you have to go to the PTCUser to download them. Attached is a pdf. I'm sure it will get stripped out also, but at least you can go download the pdf.

      I just realized I made a mistake.

      I said, "From the welcome page you want to set up some "Streams" The names you give these will show up in the emails you receive."
      Turns out that's not true. Those names are not set by what you name the stream. They are hard coded by the web site.

      I realized this after I stated following the modeling community. I started getting emails in my in-box with this in the subject line:

      There are a couple of documents in the community help area about following streams.
