How to attach an image to a post

[David Robinson]

How do I attach an image to a post ?

Excellent question. Many have trouble with this, the reason being that
you cannot attach a post via the regular Google Groups interface, but
you can via the forum interface.

If you view this group at

https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/saigonbusiness

And you click "New Post" you will see an "Attach a file" button, where
you can attach an image or file.

However, keep in mind that people who receive the posts via a digest email do
not get the attachments and they have to specifically open your post
in their web browser before they can see the attachment.

For this reason many people prefer to just upload their image to a
hosting service such as Flikr, Picasa, Photobucket or Imgr etc and
then paste the link to the photo into their post instead. This way the
people who receive the group via email can see the link in their post
and click on it to view your pictures without having to need the group
on the web.

I recommend that everyone who uses Google Groups switch over to the
new interface by clicking "View this group in the new Google Groups"
on the right hand side of the page on the group's homepage. Then when
prompted, tell Google you want to switch to the new style. The new
style is much more powerful and easy to read and manage and also
allows you to add photos and other attachments.
