    Better yet, simply place it on a web site and post the url so that those
    interested can visit it. Others will not be annoyed by it as with the
    attachment.

    Per the attachment trend:

    Please think before sending large files like
    .bmp's & .jpg's to the list. It's very time-
    consuming to download them, for us dial-up
    campesinos, anyway, and usually can be worked
    around. For instance, you might offer to send
    the file privately to those interested.

    best regards, Jack

    I heartily second this point of view. Not everyone on the list may want to
    receive long, time-consuming (on a dial-up connection) attachments. You can
    mention you have an attachment available, and those who want to see it can
    contact you off-list. Thanks!

    Well said. There's definitely a lack of thought at times in this list.

    Why not just upload them to the files section of the yahoogroup ?
