View Full Version : Split pictures

I can't see the whole of the spilt pictures, only the first part sometimes.

I'm using Mozilla Thunderbird as my news reader. Does anyone know how to
fix this?

Here's a whole picture to be getting on with.

Apologies for not checking the pixel size before posting. Here's a
smaller version that doesn't show the lack of sharpness so much!

I use Windows Live Mail and have the same "problem". When pictures are split
they apper several times with (1/2) and (2/2) following. Then I tag both and
press Combine again and then they appear complete. My bid is that Mozilla
has a simular feature.

The problem isn't that parts are missing, so much as there being
separate parts to start with. I could see the first half of the B-47
RATO picture, but the lower part, in a separate e-mail, was just a long
string of characters. Both parts of the Mainstay arrived, but I couldn't
see anything, not even strings.

Thank you from the simple little people.

Unfortunately, Mozilla doesn't.
Nor any plug-ins for that.

Nor does it directly support yENC.
(written from Thunderbird anyway)

Yes.

Let browsers be browsers, word processors be word
processors and news proggies be news proggies. I've
used Xnews in nearly a dozen platforms. About to start
using it on Win8

That's all I'm saying. I've been lurking in here for
around twenty years and used to see this come up about
once a year. Granted, it has been closer to three. But it
always devolves into a argument. Then the hurt feelings.
Yadda yadda yadda...

Thank you Jess, the information is much appreciated.

As far as the Mainstay picture goes, this is my fault (sort of and partly) so
please accept my apologies. It's a problem with my newsreader (Hogwasher)
and affects Thunderbird at least; I should have shrunk the file into a single
part post but I just forgot.

Gary Schmidt who hangs out here (or used to) diagnosed the problem nearly
five years ago and took it up with Hogwasher's developers but they obviously
haven't fixed it yet (and probably never will).

Next time I think about upping what would be a multi-part post, I'll
concentrate that little bit harder.
