Hi John,
By the way, just to make sure you know, the mailing list here has an

Ok, I hate to ask another question about this riddle. But I have
looked and looked and looked.
Where can I find more information on 'banner'? Everywhere I look it
starts telling me about banner ads and so on, and that is not what I
want!
Any howto's/tutorials/simple explanations would be apprecia

Maybe that's my problem. I dont know how to save this particular file

Yes, I realized my original guess was wrong. I think I found the
target file but now none of the module commands I'm used to will do
anything useful on it. I'm just getting "file not found" errors and
the like. There's something in the big picture that I'm not getting

What do you have against PIL ?
Processing images has played no par
I figured out what module you're supposed to use for 5, and the thing
that kills me is it's a module I've actually *used* too! But I don't
know what to . man this is hard to say without using a spoiler. I

You can try the regex page in my tutorial - under advanced topics.
