Unfortunately, I don't have the time to maintain the Archive anymore. I will try to make the old data available for as long as possible, though. Graphic Interchange Format. These are pictures which have been digitized and placed as files for people to grab.
Special groups exist for posting pictures for instance alt.pictures.binaries, etc.
These groups are optional at some sites. If you don't get them, maybe your work doesn't want you to get them. Change work policies. If you really want them, ask some one with access to email them to you. Sending pictures gets those people in trouble if your article should fill their file systems.
