MikeT Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 I just checked the newsgroup alt.binaries.pictures.military and there are a huge number of WWII pics there, color and B&W, both allied and axis. For any interested parties there is a huge number of pics that might help in mods or just for interest purposes. MikeT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letsbe Ave. Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 Well, I'll give it a shot: The easy part: Win98 SE: In Outlook Express, Tools, Accounts, News, Add. The other part: Add your news account details, the most significant bit being the News server account name. For me, it's 'news', since that's how @home have set it up. For you, it may be a phone call or e-mail to your ISP to find out what news service you have. Failing that, try this page: www.newsservers.net which yielded this nugget to me (US-based): add a news account for test.news.rcn.net checking the 'server-requires-an-account' box, and using 'guest' as the account name, and 'guest' as the password. There, hope it helps. [Edited to include some content, minor though it may be...] [ 11-13-2001: Message edited by: Letsbe Ave. ]</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
