: "Clem" wrote in message . 97.136... This is just an open thought not directed at anyone in particular. Regarding YENC: why should i add another program? i don't killfile yenc-ers to be rude but just to remove clutter. why should i waste space on my machine for a program i don't want, and which forces me to download several posts to a special folder and combine them just to see one picture? the truth is , if you want people to see your stuff put it in a format they will use. its an unmoderated group. so there are no rules, just custom. so feel free to post in yenc, but also expect to be killfiled by many of us who don't use it. it's nothing personal, Gee 1227K for xnews I might have to remove it and it reads yenc, speeds up access,rejoins multi part posts, and allows me to access all header on ng You might be right I guess I'll just have to go back to the inconvenience of using OE to access the usenet. |

I think that things should be as simple as possible. There are quite a few people who don't know how to setup new programs, like my 85 year old father, but he likes this newsgroup. He worked for Curtis back in the 30's and 40's in their experimental aircraft group in Buffalo. I vote for keeping it as simple and direct as possible so everybody can enjoy these great photos of beautiful and unique aircraft. Just my two cents. Cheers Dave |

Just use your web browser to search for "yenc newsreader" and you will be rewarded with a long list of free offerings. I'll tell you what Frank. Upgrading my older Mac OS and software is NOT AN OPTION. So if YOU can find a way for me to view YENC images that won't cost me any money which I do not have I will be eternally grateful. However it MUST WORK WITH OS 8.6 and my newsreader YA Newswatcher 5.0.1 And I mean it must work with that system...... PERIOD. I can tell you that after trying for years and listening to advice from people just like you that noboday and I mean nobody has been able to come up with a solution for me. So I go back to my simple attitude..... If your not willing to post images to this group or any others in a manner that all can see then obviously you do not wish me to see your pictures and in that case it is very simple... I CAN'T MISS WHAT I CAN'T SEE. |

You'll find it at: http://www.turbozen.com/mac/yenc/ Note that there are three different versions, depending on the mix of hardware and software, so make sure you grab the right one. -- |

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!! "russell" wrote in message ... 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.... "Clem" wrote in message . 97.136... 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. |

"The Good Poster" wrote in message ... "Clem" wrote in message . 97.136... Every group I use that allows binary posting doesn't seem to have a problem with yenc. Actually they could care less and personally I have not had any trouble viewing others yenc postings. Please name one non-porn photo group where yEnc is the norm. Joe TGP I just kill file them otherwise they drag out a war on the yEnc and then nothing gets posted because they fill the the space with argueing about it....I won't debate it nor will I try to force them to change. Its their stuff to post so let them. Its too easy to killfile them and ever newsgroup I go to if I see yEnc BURRPPPP killfiled. End of story..... Even thou I usully just lurk here I do want to Thank All the posters For some really GREAT aircraft Photos THANKS... |

Cheers Dave I am not talking about voting on anything. It is just that downloading and using a program like xnews simply make using NGs easier and more simplified than using something as cumbersome as OE. It is easier to set up and use than OE so give it a try you might be pleasantly supprised I am not shilling for xnews it is free and there may be others that fit the bill. |
