Xtra News Community 2 on Yahoo groups is a backup and companion to Xtra News Community 2 on MSN groups.  Unlike MSN groups which function as a web-accessed message board (with a secondary email list function), Yahoo groups are primarily an excellent email list message board, although they can be accessed via the web but are not as user friendly as a MSN group when accessed this way.  Where Yahoo groups completely win over MSN groups is in their far more flexible photo and file facility.  MSN groups restrict photograph and document file sizes to 1 MB and place a free storage limit of 3 MB on each member, whereas Yahoo groups have no storage limit on individual members, but instead place a storage limit on each individual group.  Groups have a maximum file storage limit of 50 MB and this is split between 30 MB in the Photos section and 20 MB in the Files section.  There is no limit to individual file size, subject to the group limits.  Accordingly, Yahoo groups are excellent for uploading photographs for display.  The Yahoo group, Xtra News Community 2 is currently open for posting and reading messages via the web on the Messages board, but you will need to join the group to post and receive messages via email or upload and/or view photographs and document files.

This photo gallery at Fotopic.Net contains numerous images of the Whittaker's Wings Over Wairarapa 2005 airshow.  Sometime in early April, images from the Classic Fighters Marborough 2005 airshow will also be put on display.  Photos in this collection will display as VGA (640x480) images, but clicking on any individual photo will open a full-size 800x600 (or slightly larger 800x600+) image.
