You're right.
I was looking at the leaves, but taking a second look,
I agree, Moonflower.

I'm glad you could get it all to re-combine into one photo, I couldn't.

The files were posted with PoerPost, for which I believe yEnc is the
default setting. For WLM you want to consider a yEnc decoder.

It seems to be Datura inoxia.

I checked this evening and the flowers do bloom after sundown: I just
happened to notice them in the early morning. They also have a
delightful fragrance which I'd not noticed at all.

Too bad they're so poisonous.

Thanks to everyone who replied.

Been down that route before and it isn't worth the bother. I've managed to
re-combine and see other yEnc split photos but this lot just would not.
Why not post a jpeg image reduced in size like most other people here?

If you mean power post then it has the option I believe to post
uuencoded.

if you insist on using a broken newsreader please stop complaining when
it doesn't work

yEnc is a method of encoding images (== converting to strings of text) so
they can be transmitted as posts or emails. It does not conform to
international (open) standards, and exists in several versions. Its
originator refused to deal with the ISO, because he wanted to make
loadsadough licensing it. I don't know whether the e-mail/news readers that
can decode it have licensed the code. It was a useful idea in its time
because it produces smaller files for transmission than the standard
methods do. That had advantages in the days of slow connections and limited
bandwidth. IMO it's obsolete.


It's a jpeg image that has been encoded using yEnc and split into many
parts.

My thoughts too Wolf, it was OK in the days of dialup but is totally
unnecessary these days with broadband speeds. It's the first one for some
while that I haven't been able to recombine which is strange, perhaps it's a
different version of yEnc.

I have a yEnc decoder and have always found it worked well previously, this
time it would not.

Totally agree. If someone wants people to see their photos, why not just
post them in a normal, everyday format that everyone is guaranteed to be
able to read?

Now that IS strange. They were posted with Camelsystem Powerpost
(http://powerpost.camelsystem.nl/e-index.php) which is a recently (Jan
2012) updated version of the original. One of the "improvements" that
I just noticed appears to the removal of the uuencode option...

I need to look into this.
