'll attach a pic of our new pond...
Your picture, although nice, has no place on a /text only/ usenet
group. The damned thing was/is over 5 MEGABYTES!!
Maybe you are a newbie so this will serve as a warning, no abuse
report will be sent out /yet./
Binaries have their own newsgroups. Do /NOT/ post binaries to a text
only group.
The accepted way for others to view your pond pics is to put them on
a website and post a pointer. (URL)
But no-one will wait for a 5 MEGABYTE! file to load. Find a good
graphics program and reduce the size considerably.
Maybe you'd like to try GIMP (
www.gimp.org)? There is a Windows
version for some reason.
5 MEGABYTES! is just rude.
