ROFLMAO!! Wendy, Reka posted two pictures here in rgo.
If it's any consolation, Reka, I've had two "Oh SH*T!" moments like that here. Here he comes, Reka! Dodge and run! Diana |

Takes up too much band width, if I understand it correctly. I imagine it's
more technical than that, but *I* am *not* more technical than that. G Abpo was created specifically for orchid pix by one of our contributors, Kye. Before that we used to post to alt.binaries.pictures.gardens or something like that. Diana "jtill" wrote in message oups.com... What is the big thing against posting pics here?

Maybe. I think porn was the problem. The alt.garden.roses was ruined
years ago by Flamers. To bad. jt |

The porn spammers hit abpo a lot in the past, and still hit it once in a
while. I don't know why some groups are more likely to be trashed than others. It would be interesting to know. Diana "jtill" wrote in message oups.com... Maybe. I think porn was the problem. The alt.garden.roses was ruined years ago by Flamers. To bad. jt |

We don't even see them anymore. Our ISP scrubs the newsgroups that should not be binary, so I don't get to enjoy waiting for the explosion. SuE http://orchids.legolas.org/gallery/main.php |

Your now in RGO and years ago Kye (from OZ) helped us by setting up a binary group so we could post pix and enjoy seeing each others collections. You sign up for ABPO (alt.binaries.pictures.orchids) just as you did for RGO. IT is by and large 90% the same people, although a few do not read both. It just gives us a secure spot to post our photos and enjoy. We do try to keep the posted size down because we do still have a few people who are connecting via dial up or slow modems. They need our respect and help. See if your ISP has ABPO, if not ask for it. SuE http://orchids.legolas.org/gallery/main.php |

Sue,
I see from his header that Jack uses groups.google.com to access newsgroups. Unfortunately google does not include any of the binaries groups. Jack, ask your internet service provider whether they provide access to newsgroups, and if so, you can use either an email and newsgroups reader such as Outlook Express or a dedicated newsgroups reader (many of which are available as freeware). To take a look at what ABPO is like, you can also go to http://usenet-replayer.de/cgi/conten...ctures.orchids This is a Web archive of abpo, but I am not sure whether there is a way to participate in current abpo from the Web.

SuE http://orchids.legolas.org/gallery/main.php Jack the full title is alt.binaries.pictures.orchids look for it on your news server, if they don't have it ask for it to be added. As sue mentions 90% of the same folks post both places. Oh and after a while you will be SO jealous of some of the folks here it will hurt! ;-) Dave Fouchey |
