Okay, they're up:

New PNGs:

http://mysite.freeserve.com/butsuri/vowels1a.png
http://mysite.freeserve.com/butsuri/text1a.png

JPEGs:

http://mysite.freeserve.com/butsuri/vowels1.jpg
http://mysite.freeserve.com/butsuri/text1.jpg


They're all rather large files, I'm afraid, but I don't find them
unnacceptable on dialup.  The PNGs look a little better than the
JPEGS, but it's not that noticeable.

Someone let me know if this worked.  I hope so - I don't like using
the web interface to upload things, and so far I haven't been able to
log in there with an FTP client.
