Re: How To Make i.o. Cover Photo Banner Sized
Deborah, ? Take a look at what I do with the banner on FOGgers /g/foggers . I use a free program called IrfanView to manipulate the pictures and create our banner. You¡¯ll have to take some a little time to learn how the program works, but I think helps me a lot. ? Don ? From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Deborah Cohen

Oh. I don't know how to do that without distorting the image by stretching it out horizontally. :-(? |

Re: moving files from Yahoo
Leslie,
See?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/19274 If you are unwilling to pay the $110 for a transfer -- and you have a lot of spare time on your hands -- there are other options to download and save content from Yahoo Groups. Shal has previously mentioned three options in the following post:??/g/GroupManagersForum/message/19204?. I have used PG Offline successfully in the past, and Robert has given detailed instructions on how to use the Chrome browser add-on in?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/19222?. The problem is what to do with the message archive once downloaded; as there is really no good way to re-upload it to groups.io, to re-link individual messages to their owners, or to provide online message search capability. Perhaps the best option is simply to print the collection of old messages to a PDF file; at which point you can upload that to the files area of your group. That will give you something, even if it isn't conveniently indexed and searchable.? -- Frances /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki /static/help More help: use the search button at the top of the Messages list. |

Re: Moving Progress
Good to know, thanks Larry. I sent transfer an invite so as soon as he is listed, I will start the process to get my list moved. Susan

Re: Moving to IOGroups
Thank you thank you thank you!! And I apologize for the repeated questions but I deal with the list alone and have no help as far as admin stuff. I promise I will do my best to read Shal's messages. I want to take care of my 10,000+ members. They too are asking me lots of questions so my inbox is floating. LOL So appreciate all your help. Susan

Shutting down activity on Yahoo!
#post-transfer
Hi all -
I am writing for advice from people that have already made the transition from Yahoo! Groups.? I have a group of about 3K members that is 17 years old, and I want to make sure we keep our archives intact.?? What did you do to ensure that you didn't continue to have people posting on the Yahoo! side?? Did you delete the group?? I want to make sure that once we're set up here, I don't have people continuing to post there.?? Thanks in advance for your experiences and guidance, Natalie |

Some may wonder if the transfer to groups.io process is working. I sent the invitation from one of my groups yesterday and the invitation was accepted this afternoon. I upgraded the new member ([email protected]) to moderator status and initiated the transfer process using the button on the groups.io transfer webpage.
The webpage quickly (automated, no doubt) showed, "We are in process of transferring your group. Depending on Yahoo and demand, this may take several days.

Taking a guess...some types of embedded images are converted to attachments by groups.io. I cannot provide a clear reason why some and not others. Also, Outlook automatically creates a winmail.dat file that is sometimes (read: often unnecessarily) attached to messages it sends in html format. Beyond that, you will have to be more specific as to what the problem is, or (preferably) send us a screenshot. Regards, Bruce |

Is there a display Preview option for content at external liinks?You mean like Facebook? No. Are animations like Gyphy permitted?It is not prohibited site-wide, but many groups don't like it very much, because such things proliferate in the Emailed Photos folder, which may eventually cause the group to exceed its storage allotment.
