I guess either you are inexperienced as a poster or you don't like this
newsgroup... 46 megs worth of images in a zip file is a bit much. Added to which 1/3 of them are duplicates, triplicates and even quadruplicates, several of the images are corrupt, a few where partially corrupt, and a handful where a touch explicit for this type of newsgroup. Next time try posting a couple of your favorites and see what happens. Andrew "michael johnson" wrote in message . 120... |

Unless u have Wine installed AND use a Windows Newsreader (doing that is just stupid, there plenty of good and powerfull Newsreader on Linux / BSD / Mac etc). And for those who dont want to install Linux, there are several Live-CD Linux Systems, running totally from CD / DVD / Memorystick. They often bring also good Newsreader (with binary Support, even for yenc) with them. Regards Jens |
