Re: Group Huddle :> Pictures or not?
You limit photos sizes in your group settings and it¡¯ll remove the oldest ones if you fill up on free space?

We can have a photos sections here on the site, but they have a

So are photos important to you and how would you like the group to

Re: Group Huddle :> Pictures or not?
Sue, it is handled by the group's server rejecting them. The sender gets an error message, but it does not get posted to the group. The sender can either resend the post with a smaller image or remove the image.

Re: Group Huddle :> Pictures or not?
I am on a limited internet connection, so limited is better. Also, on another list, one member keeps posting very wide images and ends up making the text unreadable on even a tablet.
Photos are a great diagnostic tool, WHEN used properly, so my vote is limited size.

Re: Welcome to the new home of the Yahoo iPhone Group.
Quality over quantity, any day.?
I'm sure there were many lurkers, many who did not feel they could contribute. It might also be good to thin the ranks of inactive email accounts. A lot of the lurkers are those that only come to the groups, what are not heavy users, and only look when they have a problem, instead of skimming the post and learning ahead of time. Just like face to face groups, sports, hobby or social. There are the doers and those that are just along for the ride.

For instructional purposes I think they are very helpful ¨C show an edited screenshot with some part highlighted so that the O.P. can *see* what the explainer is trying to explain.

Showing cute pix of pets?

Rich, Dave Kelly used the bulk invitation, and we still had to go though the moderation stage.

Re: Group Huddle :> Pictures or not?
I think having the option to send pictures/screenshots would be advantageous.

Having the ability to post screenshots can be very helpful at times.

I would just update if it fixes your problem.

Rich, I am not certain if William Lane is on this list, but he took over the list started by Janice Kempf. He switched the list's name to avoid confusion with the local MUG it was named after and moved it to groups.io after trying googlegroups for a bit.

Thanks for the invite to the new site. I¡¯ve never heard of the site before but should be interesting if we get all or most of our members to move here.
I¡¯m really glad that this site has a way to email messages so I don¡¯t hang to go to the site to answer them. It¡¯s the best thing about the site so far. I¡¯mlooking forward¡¯s to interacting with all of you here.

Reminders work fine on my iPhone 11 Pro, 2 iPad Pros, Apple Watch 5 and HomePods. They do not work with my Mac running Mojave and I don¡¯t want to install Catalina just yet.

Not to mention that Reminders in iOS 13 don¡¯t connect with Reminders in MacOS 10.14 and earlier. That connection requires 10.15 Catalina.
Rant on.
Apple is looking less and less solid in their software of late.
The debacle with iOS 13 which has just been upgraded to 13.1.3! (three fixes to a new iOS in a couple weeks) should embarrass Tim Cook.
Upgrading Reminders in iOS and breaking the connection with MacOS also not a great look.
The replacement of iTunes with three apps is fine but breaking the previously supported .xml file which many developers counted on for a myriad of iTunes support products, also not good.
Since I rely on a couple 32 bit apps, I¡¯m unlikely to move to Catalina any time soon (and so my Reminders in iOS will no longer sink with my Macs).
I understand change bringing enhancements and improvements is vital to continued growth AND there are better and worse ways to change.
Rant off.
