Here's part of it: 
COBirds does not allow any file including pictures to be attached to your message because viruses are spread through attachments.

If you add photos to your eBird posting, you can add the link to your post on your email to COBirds.

COBirds without pictures??  Oh no.  No more photos from Leatherman or Floyd?
 Isn't this a case of a fix worse than the problem?
I haven't been following this discussion, so maybe I'm confused here.  I hope so.

Dear CoBirders,

There has been no change in policy regarding appropriate photos in CoBirds posts. The current language of the list rules does state that attachments are not allowed, but the fact is they are routinely posted to the list and I think the rule's language needs to be revised at this time. But ideally photos are included within the body of the post, as is often done.
