Dear Stephanie! Try KOI-8.

Дорогая Стефани! Попробуйте кодировку KOI-8. Она должна работать здесь.
"Фото" вместо "фотография" звучит действительно несколько "простонародно",
но по сравнению с появившимся недавно совершенно жутким словечком "ФОТКА"
"фото" выглядит вполне "невинно" ;)))  Есть еще одно приемлемое
"неформальное"
слово - "снимок" (или фотоснимок).

My apologies to the list; my Russian font in Gmail didn't come through in
seelangs. :-) Internet multilingual gremlins lurk always.

Here's a repost of my message:

Is it acceptable (in Russian) to use a shortened form of the word
"fotografia" - something like "foto"?

Regards,
Stephanie Sures.
