[Az-Geocaching] HEY Brian and Jason

Here's an example of n awesome thread by cachers in San Diego on the Geocaching forums. When they are out caching they take pictures and post them in this thread and other people guess what cache they are at and such and hilarity ensues. Until I found out about the listserv, I wondered why us Arizonians didn't have a cool thread like this for us.

That site, like others, actually gives you a link that you can insert to your post that will place the image to autoload into your post. 

While I can and I do use that in my postings in the listserv, when used in forums, it's not a link you have to follow... the image is downloaded as the thread is downloaded from the server and inserted specifically where you place the insertion.  This requires no local server space other than a line of text redirecting the browser to pull the image from an alternate source. 

Oh yeah, sites like photobucket have free accounts.  I'm sure there is a limit to how much you can upload with the free account, but I haven't found it yet.

 I was going to suggest Thunderbird with the 'Collapse Quotes' add-on.
 
 I wonder if we can have our cake and eat it too?
 Would it be possible to have both forms of communication?
 Posting photos would be nice, but I'll bet that would begin to eat up a lot of disk space in a hurry.
