Well there is the issue that if you allow photos then you have to 
allow any sort of attachment and that opens the door to all kinds of 
nasties.  Plus there is the issue of extra traffic and band-width on 
the server.   We have been blessed with having a free hosting server 
for the list that is on in a fairly stable environment thanks to one 
of the list's founders and well, one can't ask for much more than than.

Plus I prefer the text format for all of my emails.  Ebay just added 
the ability for sellers to send pics in messages but I would have to 
turn on HTML messaging which I do not want to do.
