Sherry,

1. A member has asked about replying when he is on summary mode...
" ... To ... reply to a topic click the subject." But then couldn't
see any obvious Reply button."

When you click on the Subject of an item in the Daily Summary that's a link that takes you to that Topic in the group's Messages section.

What does the member see?

If the member can see the messages but can't see the Reply link in the bar under each message that tells me two things: 1) your group's messages are public, and 2) the member is not logged in to Groups.io or is logged in with an address that is not subscribed to your group. Have the member look at the text at the very bottom of the Daily Summary. It will say "you are subscribed to ... via (his email address here)". The email address shown when logged in must match the subscribed address.

If the member sees your home page or something else, same answer: he is not logged in or is logged in with a non-subscribed email address; but your group does not show messages to non-members.

I note that some of my membership are showing as *Summary* and some as
*Summary [R]*

An R in a blue box means that the member has selected "Auto Follow Replies" in the Advanced Preferences section of his/her Subscription. That feature is intended for use with Individual or Digest delivery, I don't think it has any effect when used with Daily Summary.

2. A member has reported regarding posting an image that "it only
seems to accept jpgs, as I found when I tried a bmp [no error message,
just nothing happens]" again I could find nothing about image types
that would be accepted and which (if any) would not.

As far as I know any type would be accepted, but it may depend on how the member posts the message (via his/her email interface, or via the group's interface) and how one views the resulting message.

I haven't tried BMP, but it (like TIFF) has a lot of variations and are sometimes very large files. I've used JPG (for images) and PNG (for screenshots and drawings); both are much more standardized and typically more compact.
