The reason he is complaining, is that a picture makes your newsgroup posting 100times larger than the average newsgroup post. Newsgroups are not intended to exist for those who have the luxury of a large bandwidth connection. Also, a very large percentage of people who read newsgroups do not use a graphical reader (the newsgroup culture at large has not interest in adding this feature, but companies like Microsoft do). Basically, by adding the picture, you are only benifiting a few, while slowing down the workings of the newsgroup. -- Luke A. Olbrish | <demox@cc.gatech.edu> | cs1312 TA / cs2130 Student |
