It seems that there are people who would like to have the ability to add embedded images to posts, and possibly some who are against that (although that might not be the case). Since the membership of the list is not what it once was, maybe the ones who make the rules would be open to putting it to a vote of the remaining members??
Is it possible to get a virus from an embedded image? I don't know the answer to that, but I know a lot of forums allow that, so I doubt it's a problem. Who would like to have a vote? If that's acceptable, count me in for allowing it. If not, I'll abide by the rules. embedded images are sent with the email as attachments, so yes, they can easily send viruses. Some people have limited bandwidth due to various reasons; financial, locality & availability of cable service. It is not fair to hammer their limited access. It is a simple matter to post your image to a reputable hosting site and post the link.
