well, I hear you. but your anology doesnt' apply very well, not at all actually. It would if a person didn't know how to go digging on a group site for a picture say..........but it's not like I need to learn how to go digging for something on a group site. and............the poster has that info .....he knows where he put it, and it's one simple step to put the link in his post.

it's also a matter of consideration, a little known concept sometimes, apparently !
