Absolutely. I have to decode yenc in the book newsgroups but before I waste
my time decoding - I already know what I am going to get. Why should I
spend a lot of time downloading a single huge picture then have to decode it
just to find something I don't want in the first place? Post in a downsized
picture format and save me time in viewing. I killfile anyone in the
picture groups which post in yenc because of their inconsideration in
thinking their stuff is so important that they have to post in huge size and
waste my time. Another thing is that many servers (not mine thank goodness)
have very limited server space and posting in yenc can rapidly fill it up
pushing other material off. I agree that yenc has many good points for
certain things like the book groups but in here - NO!!

Clem, upgrade to what? Why should I upgrade (or install unwanted
programmes) when all you need to do is resize your pictures before you
post them. The best pictures on this NG come from Glenn (IMO) and we don't
have to install any upgraded software to view his images, so what is so
special about yours? If you can't take his lead, maybe you are the loser
and we have missed nothing....

This is just an open thought not directed at anyone in particular.


Regarding YENC:


There does come a point when to stay current, you MUST upgrade.
