Unable to download what?  This message isn't a reply to anything, just
a newly composed post.

I doubt that you'd have gotten any digitization of your image. It's a
rough pencil drawing, with microscopically narrow lines and a lot of
extraneous detail.

It might have helped if you had identified what the image was - to 95%
of the world, it's just a drawing of an old man in a hat. Sure - SOME
of us know that it was drawn as a memoriam to Coach Bear Bryant. If
you'd SAID so, maybe someone could have found a more suitable image.
The image you posted needs a LOT of work, whether to be autodigitizied
or to be done manually.

On the other hand, I DO know who it is, and couldn't find anything
much better. I DID find these - some of them are marginally larger,
but no easier to digitize.

And this one is just his hounds-tooth hat (it's really a picture of a
cake!)

BTW - note the amount of text that I have in the BODY of this message.
You could do the same, instead of trying to get your whole request
into the subject line, which many newsreaders will have truncated and
left your request unreadable. And when you post in the body of the
message, you can add whatever detail might help those people who want
to help YOU.
