I belong to several "Lists", including Healeys, Spridgets, Minis, Morris Minors, and the other MG-T List, and no one on any of these Lists ever posts pictures directly to the List. They always provide a link to click on for those who want to view the pictures. That's just common courtesy! Look at it this way.....How would you like it if EVERYONE posted pictures to the List with his message? Do you see what would happen? Remember, when you choose a course of action, you're choosing that course for everyone. Bob
