National Photos, a nation-wide Photographic developer/printer here is 
Australia, offer a new service - they use a flat-bed colour scanner to 
copy your photos to floppy disk. This is the format used and it's 
compatible with both IBM and Mac. They also supply a freeware program 
(IBM or Mac version) to use with the disk.

Alternative to sending a disk through the post, they offer to put your 
pix at a location on the net for you to download them (there's some kind 
of security code involved so that nobody else can easily find them).

My II GS wouldn't be able to read the disk but I thought maybe I could 
download my photos from the net if only I can find a way to convert them 
to SHR or whatever.
