Hi Albert,
I could be wrong but AFAIK, there is no feature on Geocities for you to
transfer files out of their system. Geocities/Yahoo's system, IMHO is
sufficiently full of security potholes without them actually assisting thieves.
Sounds to me like you're going to have to "rape and pillage" your own site.
Why not just go to your page, select the graphic that you want, ight mouse
click and "save image as" and save the ones you want to your hard drive.
I must admit, I am a little perplexed as to why you would upload any file
and not keep the original on your system, unless you think that by
uploading it to Geocities, you are removing it rather than copying it..in
which case, it is still sitting there somewhere...:))))
