The list removes any attachments that are not GIF or Jpeg images. I stripped
the PDF file from the saved backup and extracted the images. I rotated all the
images from portrait to landscape orientation and converted them back to gray
scale from what looked more like a blueprint format than photographic. The
Google Earth Street View image's color balance was so badly out of whack it
was just easier for me to get on Google Earth, find the location and do a
screen capture to replace it. Here are the results.

Note that I would not normally spend this much time to do this so please send
images as jpegs and not in a PDF file if you want them to actually get to the
list!
