Can you please post a link to a screen shot so we can see what you are

How To Post Screen Shots To Newsgroups

You can post a screenshot link using a service like ImageShack.
ImageShack is an easy-to-use free media hosting service. It can be used
to upload images. Registration is not required in order to upload files.

1. On your keyboard, press Command-Shift-4.
2. On your keyboard, press the space bar.
3. Click the window you want. A picture file will appear on the desktop.
4. Go to <http://imageshack.us/> or <http://tinypic.com>.
5. Click Browse, then navigate to and select the picture file.
6. Click "Upload Now".
7. Paste the "Direct link to image" URL in a newsgroup message.

I often ignore posts from Google. Use a real news client instead.
