Posting Pictures on this News Group
Do people post directly to this news group with photos or is it better to
post by web site? I know some groups post directly and some post by web page.... Just curious. John Loomis |

I wonder why this group is not a binary.....I guess it is an info only.
I do see a binary group for amateur landscape. It would be interesting to see a binary amateur digital photograph newsgroup. Thanks for the reply John Loomis "Bruce Lewis" wrote in message ...

Web hosted image are much more versatile - thumbnails, meta data, variable resolution, links to other images, tags etc. Additionally, pictures stored on a web host remain until intentionally removed. Pictures stored in a binary newsgroup have retention times that depend on the particular NNTP host, usually varying from several months with the better fee based hosts to as little as a couple of days and poor completion on the free ones. |
