Scott - 29 Jul 2006 00:05 GMT I have been watching this NG, have not seen anything on it but spam, I say we take it over and use it for posting pictures and other binaries.

Popeye - 29 Jul 2006 01:00 GMT Do you post pictures just like regular e-mails?
 Signature Popeye I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen. -Hemingway www.finalprotectivefire.com

Yes, just add an attachment or paste it into the body if you are posting via html.

We can either post them via tinypic.com and then post the link here, or we can put them on a googlepages site... Google makes it easy enough that *any* idiot should be able to do it... Hell, my 11 yr old daughter is even able to handle it...
Scott - 29 Jul 2006 03:16 GMT > Why bother? <chop>
Because it has scuba in the name, and it takes only a couple mouse clicks, and because we can kick the nuts off the spammers.
What is your problem?

If it is a text newsgroup, many ISPs will automatically strip binary postings to the newsgroup... The binary postings will not be archived, thus after a certain point determined by each different news server, the older ones will disappear... If it is worth posting, it is worth keeping it around for a prolonged time...

For a classical (expiring) newsgroup, if its on-topic to scuba, you should be able to use:
alt.binaries.images.underwater
Just be aware that Google doesn't archive most (all?) of the binaries groups, so you'll need a regular news server account.

Basically, it's an orphaned name that should be deleted...
Not all news servers carry it... Google Groups doesn't... Neither does the RoadRunner news servers...

as for sheep, You've got us mixed up with the Aussies across the tasman sea. We eat sheep, and do a mean mutton roast, while they eat the sheep out :D
