In my mind, it provides HUMAN contact in a HUMAN conversation.
An image indicating contact information for a member's Mac repair?business is very relevant.
What *I* am running is often not very relevant to the OP¡¯s complaint.?When it is, I include that info as part of the conversation.
I certainly don¡¯t think it needs to be on EVERY posting.
So I'll ask - Jim, what does the photo of you add to your post? If it's just?for the sake of it, I think you need to take to heart that there are actual?reasons NOT to do it.?
Let me answer that indirectly.
Having an image of YOU on a post to which I am replying gives ME a?much better feeling for the person with whom I am conversing. More like?a face-to-face conversation between real people.
The difference in message size between image the way I¡¯m now doing it and no image is about the same, or less, as the difference between sending in RTF versus sending in plain text.
I'm not opposed to it, personally. "Selfish" is choosing your own want?over someone else's need, but you do what you gotta do.
Oh, come on. I¡¯m sure you could phrase that with greater personal hostility if you just put your mind to it.
