Quoting Todd Lehman <todd@lugnet.com>: (...) I, myself, wouldn't want to see *any*. An animated gif, no matter how small, is still terribly annoying. I suspect it won't be long before people have banners and avatars at the bottom of EVERY post, and (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) Hmm...maybe Content-Type: text/x-ftx isn't the right thing to set. I didn't expect it to confuse NNTP clients...but now that you mention it, it makes sense. If it instead said Content-Type: text/plain what do you think would be a good header (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) I agree, while it's an interesting feature, I'd really rather there not be any images contained in lugnet posts. Is it really that hard to deep-link to a brickshelf image instead? It quite frankly draws your attention away from the text, and (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) Actually, could there be a cookie setting to turn them off (IE strip them out, not just show raw text) in the web interface? Personally, I never could stand signatures with images and all the other fancy, colorful junk that often gets thrown (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

One favor to ask though, while URL links show up as still clickable in a newsreader, all the nifty set (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

neat - can we make something that will filter out all the FTX in mail and NNTP? Currently, all the new posts show up as text/x-ftx, and until I tell mutt that that's plain text (with some noise), it doesn't display it at all. But cool for the web (...)

I am very happy to announce three changes today to the LUGNET News web interface: Fixed-width font now used for plain-text messages. Once upon a time, when LUGNET first served up messages via the web, messages were displayed in a fixed-width font. (...)
