Hi Starlight,
...and I'm enjoying yours! May I make a suggestion though, and this is
not in any way a criticism, just something that may make life easier for
you and those downloading your posts. I see you are using Xnews which is
a great newsreader (IMO) but a bit laborious for posting. Why not try
Powerpost 2000. There are a number of different versions but the one at
this URL is possibly the best around:
http://powerpost.cjb.net/
It's free and encodes in yEnc which is a great saving in file size for
both posters and downloaders alike. (Also for the newsgroup servers but
any saving has probably been dissipated by the proliferation of
broadband.) If you need to be convinced of the file size saving, take a
look at spore46.jpg posted by Alexei. It is 96,425 bytes but only 740
lines. Compare this with jet189.jpg which is 92,670 bytes but 1463
lines.
Powerpost is very easy to use, just set it up, add the files you want
posted, compose the header, tell it which newsgroup to post to and press
play...
Best wishes
Chai
