Barry. Please don't use this kind of language in your posts. It's not necessary to make your point. "I think it is simply his vanity that he wants his silly face to be seen by all of us. It gives him a feeling of power if he can annoy other people."

An image indicating contact information for a member's Mac repair
business is very relevant.
Personal photos in signature lines are more relevant when people are
trying to prove they're not 13. If 13 year old member on the list
posted an articulate question or response, their age becomes
irrelevant. If the information is accurate and well-phrased, they
could be any age, any gender, from any location, etc.

I hadn't scrolled down far enough to notice Jim's signature photo at the bottom of his message till I looked for it during this discussion. And it's an embedded graphic that gets deleted when I delete the message in Eudora.
So not an issue for me.

Oh, come on. I’m sure you could phrase that with greater personal hostility if you just put your mind to it.
I do have to say it is pretty damn ANNOYING to have to go to the bottom of the message menu and hit remove attachments. I agree with Tiffany, Jim. Get over it. I am sure by now we have all seen your face. Nobody else is that—to use her word—selfish.

Ultimately, like I said before, when our ?storage runs out the oldest attachments will be automatically delected to make room for new attachments. By Jim adding his photo to every email really won’t make that much difference because if his photo happens to be the oldest attachment it will get deleted first.
Fine for those who read the messages on the web, but for those of us who read in Email the images keep coming and coming. Maybe Jim will buy us all bigger hard drives.

Re: Old back up in trash by mistake..Help!
#Mac
Have you tried this:
- open Finder
- click on Finder in the menu bar and select empty trash.
You may be doing a secure delete, which is time-consuming.
Be sure that option is not selected.

I have my own signatures with photos and/or graphics. I love them. It makes me feel like I put more effort into the message I'm sending. Email can be impersonal and there are times when I really wish I could have written a note or embossed it or something. I have my own reasons for liking images and color. I make sure I host those images instead of attaching them, but that was my preference. When I say "you do you" I actually mean it. I don't have a preference as to what you do with your email signature line. Your photo has been attached to your signature line for a while. I didn't give it a second thought until this discussion arose.?

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.

Hi Folks! I simply closed all apps, then did a shutdown. Then I brought the iMac back up and the message was gone. To further attempt to divorce myself from Yahoo!, I went to each browser that I use and made sure that Yahoo! was NOT selected as a search engine or start page. Each browser is using Duck Duck Go. I will be sure to search for and trash Chromium and/or Chrome or Chrome based browsers. Generally I use Opera, Safari or Tor when doing financial stuff. Should this renegade message pop up again, I’ll repost. On Oct 28, 2019, at 7:53 PM, Bob Beckham via Groups.Io <rbeckhm@...> wrote:

It would be great if could provide a link URL for the image some of us provide ON , and which is displayed when our messages are read ONLINE. If you have a place on line where your?picture is stored that works out well.
Right. I do. It’s my “avatar” on

Small pic like yours helps identify with that person. ?Thanks.
Brent replied: If you have an image for the person, then put it in your contacts and Mail.app will include it when you read the email.
If the email comes from the individual, but not if the email comes from the list. And I do not routinely add everyone on a list I’m on to my Contacts. And where would I get images of list members to add to my Contacts if I wanted to? But with every post, it takes up space in the groups data allocation, EVERY TIME.
I notice that posts my image in every post I send, IF it is viewed on the website, but NOT if it is sent out as email. And I noticed you include an image with your posts.
鲍尘尘尘… I saw no image included in his post. Just the ? character, which is a type-able character, if you know how.
