I think that some of the other posts pointed out that they would rather
download the source as plain old ascii text, so I guess that is the best
way to do it. If ya have something yo would like to post on my site then
just zipping up the source and a description would be perfect. 
My main focus is making the source as accessible as possible to as many
programmers as possible, and I think you guys are right this is probably
the best way to do it.

As for screen shots, I have been using 200 x 150 pixel images I then run
all images through debabelizer to reduce download times.
