Yikes!  Bad Advice!  Please do NOT attach photos to your LUG messages.
This is a sure way to generate a whole new thread that will finally put
that filter/no filter fiasco to sleep.  Many people on the Internet pay by
the minute, and it costs money to download a lengthy JPG.  It is considered
bad form to send binaries (photographs) to mailing lists.  The only
acceptable method is to post the URL, or to ask for people to email you
privately for the photographs in question.
