I didn't think we were supposed to send images on this group.

And the message is text only, containing a URL linking to an image, so
within the rules for text only groups.

It's the same principle as linking to a Soundcloud file...

Incidentally, some news servers do either strip binary attachments from
posts or just delete posts with binaries before they get onto the server.

No, it is not a link, it is a file sent along with his text message. I go to
a lot of trouble to post pictures or audio to a web site somewhere because I
should not send them in a message.

OK, for the quibblers out there it is both. Looks like he meant to send a
link, then also attached a 160k .png file to the message.

As I said, some news servers strip attachments in text only groups. It
appears that News Individual Net is one of them. I saw no attachment.

Whatever the server is, there's no attachment on Google groups.

I bet a nickel you're using Outlook, which displays the link as if it were
a local file. This is specifically a function of your news client, other
people do not see this.

Does Outlook do news now? I eschewed it many years ago because it
didn't, and Outlook Express which does is/ was <Mode=polite> not a good
program for any purpose.

<Checks> Ah, you need a plugin, which calls Outlook Express or Vista
Livemail to read news.

I'll stick to Thunderbird for now.

Well, if I may, this is a non-binary group. If you posted an array of binary files (common with posting MP3s), your "provider" may take action.
