Groups were specifically created for the postings of GIF's.  Ask *your*
system admin. for access to those groups.

Really?  Perhaps you have forgotten that not every site in Usenet
has a T1 line?  Have you heard of UUCP connections?  There are many
of these still out there.  And probably many other slower means
of getting news.  Don't presume that everybody and every site can
afford what yours can.  Usenet was *not* created for you only.

Again, just as *you* are free to ask your newsadmin for access to
the appropriate groups.
