Hi Mike,

Unfortunately rich text is not a format for use in a newsgroup. Posts to
newsgroups should be made in plain text.

Photographs should be attached to the message as files of jpeg's and for
preference the file size should be kept fairly small so that more people
can
see it more easily. I use a freeware program called Irfanview to resize
and
slightly compress the files so that they are about the 100-300k size (for
me
about 800 pixel wide and around 90 percent on the quality slider). If you
check the attachment (paperclip) on the top right of this post you will
see
a file named DSC_09480001.jpg which is the picture showing (hopefully)
below.

Hope this helps.
