Fetch! is a unique application that will grab the illustrations from a page or an entire site with a minimum of effort. When I'm surfing, I keep it open to gather up goodies wherever I find them.  Webmasters are unhappy with it, because it ignores those pesky banners and popups. If you want to download a trial version click here. The support is excellent and Fetch! would be a bargain at three times the price.

By the way, I have no financial interest in the company. I've had some correspondence with the creator and he's always eager to help me out, even to the the point of modifying the program so that it will function in eGroups.

Since it's likely that newbies and the computer illiterate with apply this program to their own eGroups memberships, I am writing the faq to save correspondence with me and the author of the program. Look at it this way: if you didn't know how to drive a car, you just wouldn't sit behind the wheel, press the starter and whiz off onto the freeway. I'd hope you'd study the manual, practice in an empty parking lot a bit and just start out slowly.

That's what we're going to do.
