Looks like it was created for you - but I don't see the problem with
posting links to higher quality images - I really don't.

When subscribing to a group with a title of 'binaries.animations', it's
pretty obvious the files are going to be of a significant size.  When
subscribing to an 'images' group, it's not clear what the average size is.
I would think that you'd *want* people to be interested in your images,
not pissed off because it took longer than expected to download them over
their 26.4Kbps dialup.  I know if I was stuck with a slow dialup (which
would've been less than 5 years ago), I'd be *very* unhappy with the waste
of my limited bandwidth.

So again, I ask, what's so difficult about being considerate for those
less fortunate?
