I don't think there's a competent list on earth that "allows" pictures or
other binary-encoded files. Mail lists are designed to work well with *any*
operating system, but attachments give many of the dumb "Eunuchs" servers
fits (among other problems).

Just use a web page for the pic (many here will let you use theirs, if you
ask nicely), and post the URL to the list. Most modern mail programs let you
go there by simply clicking on the address.

That way, you aren't wasting huge amounts of bandwidth to send it to those
who don't care to look at it.

That's my US$0.01... (Two cents Canadian ;-)).
