Tony, this isn't a binaries group. Don't post binaries here. Posting
a link to a hosting site where you have
your binary files stored is the way to do it, OK?


Tony, Ignore the idiots. This isn't 1995. We're not on 2400 dialup.
Just post the picture here if you want.



I vote to post the picture here as well. The problem with "free"
picture hosting sites is all the javascript crap that runs before the
picture is displayed...and I personally don't trust javascript from
those places.


The original charter of the group with USENET says no binaries.
Technology has changed and perhaps the charter should be changed but it
was valid in the past. Some servers won't take the attached file.

The bigger issue is that the majority of free Usenet providers will
not carry the binaries. I can post a binary here through Easynews and
it will be carried by the paid services, but stripped by Eternal
September, Google Groups, etc.

A good image hosting site, one without much advertising is imgur.com.
I use uBlock Origin and that site is acceptable.
