There ain't no such thing. You can have moderated groups which will
clip out images, but for general Usenet groups, you can post pictures
whenever you like.

Lots of ISP's strip the binary attachments to text groups. Post in
alt.binaries.pictures.fishing
and post a notice.

A lot of providers will not allow binaries in text news groups.

Still ain't no such thing. You can post it and it will post through.
What the individual servers do with them isn't the point.

Nice boat.

Is that your house in the background?

Yes..the pale yellow one behind the mini-van...but don't pass that along
to some of the more questionable characters in this newsgroup.
We were in our window replacement mode so some don't matchup. Plus this
years 'bay window' addition on the first floor not shown.

You guys up in Canadianisms don't have to register your sail boats as
motor boats when you put an engine on them?

Not in Nova Scotia if the motor is less than 10hp.
Some other provinces (Ontario) do require it.

Cox strips binaries from the post in text only groups. So, those of us with Cox
missed out. What's a good news server that doesn't strip the binaries?
