The Exi-Chat list archive only contains text and small images.
Posts that include a link to an online image will include the link text, so the image can be viewed from the archives so long as the link remains active.

If you want to post a large image in the body of your post then it should first be greatly reduced from normal camera photo size. Aim for below 150KB size. Larger images (like Adrian's recent posts) can be specially allowed by the List Moderator but won't be stored in the list archive. There will usually be a delay until the List Moderator notices that a message is awaiting approval. The delay may be considerable depending on other activities and the Time Zone the List Moderator is currently in. These large posts also place a heavier load on the Exi-Chat mail server and all the recipient mail servers as they distribute a large image through to all list members.

Resizing images is easy. Search for 'image resizing'. There are many free software apps / programs and online websites that do image resizing. Some will also allow cropping of images to remove unwanted parts of images.
